The Future of the Electoral College
www.youtube.com

On March 25, The Fulcrum brought together three experts on the Electoral College to talk about efforts to revamp the process for selecting a president. Our editor-in-chief, David Hawkings, moderated a discussion focused on alternatives to the current system, including the National Popular Vote compact and proportional representation of the vote.

Our panelists were:


  • Kevin Johnson, executive director, Election Reformers Network
  • John Koza, chairman, National Popular Vote
  • Toni Zimmer, chairwoman, National Popular Vote Taskforce at the League of Women Voters

The full video is available above.
