The majority of Americans would rather a national popular vote total decide presidential elections than the Electoral College vote totals, a survey from the think tank Pew Research Center has found.
The survey sampled more than 6,000 Americans, discovering that 63 percent would prefer presidential elections be decided by the national popular vote. Conversely, just 35 percent of respondents favored keeping “the current system, in which the candidate who wins the most votes in the Electoral College wins the election,” the survey found.

There is no certifiable “popular vote”.
Wife proximity alert.
Pence has "0" to do with that...
His total "job" is reading the electoral votes into the record...no more...no less.
And by that comment you illustrate both why the 19th Amendment was passed, and why it should never even have been considered.
Well done!
Well then, if they want it that way, do the work to get a Constitutional Amendment passed.
Get out and drum up support, get your state legislatures to support it. Get you US legislatures to vote for it. Then get 3/4 of the states to ratify the Amendment. Then get 2/3 of the US Legislature to vote to approve the Amendment.
You better get busy, it may take a long time to get your wish.
Happy to help.
Ever heard of “tongue-in-cheek humor”? My wife is actually a strong conservative who thinks the bane of the planet is liberal women.
How many states must ratify this?
“Public school education”
An oxymoron.
Most cannot name their state’s US Senators, their US Congressman, nor all nine justices on the US Supreme Court.
Tough crap.
That poll is precisely why we don’t have the popular vote.
Idiots swayed by the current batch of pied pipers of wokedom and socialism.
Doing this would require 2/3 of both the house and senate and then 3/4 of the states. States with small populations are not going to agree that NY and California should run the whole country.
Except they’re doing that now, Kamala Harris, Nancy Pelosi, McCarthy, and Schumer.
Thank God we’re Republic not a democracy and have a constitution. Sorry they know more about the Kardashians that US Civics.
63% of those surveyed are morons.
A survey?
Figures never lie, but Liars Figure.
BS Poll.
