CRITICAL OF THE ELECTORAL
COLLEGE BEFORE ABOUT LAST NIGHT
SHE TOOK IT ONE STEP FURTHER.
>> COME THE GENERAL ELECTION,
PRESIDENT CANDIDATES DON'T COME
TO PLACES LIKE MISSISSIPPI.
THEY GO TO PLACES LIKE
CALIFORNIA AND MASSACHUSETTS.
BECAUSE WE ARE NOT THE
BATTLEGROUND STATE.
MY VIEW IS THAT EVERY VOTE
MATTERS.
IN THE WAY WE CAN MAKE THAT
HAPPEN IS THAT WE CAN HAVE
NATIONAL VOTING, AND THAT MEANS
GET RID OF THE ELECTORAL
COLLEGE.
>> Sandra: CHRIS JENKINS IS
LIVE FOR US.
>> MORAN WAS RESPONDING TO A
QUESTION AT THAT CNN TOWN HALL
ABOUT DISENFRANCHISEMENT WHEN
SHE TOOK IT FURTHER CALLING FOR
THE DITCHING OF THE ELECTORAL
COLLEGE IS NOT THE FIRST TIME
THAT THE MASSACHUSETTS SENATOR
HAS BEEN CRITICAL SO WHAT
>> Sandra: SUGGESTING IN THE

BOTTOM LINE, IT'S LONG BEEN
DEBATED BUT NOW IT'S AN OFFICIAL
DEMOCRATIC 2020 CANDIDATE

>> Sandra: I UNDERSTAND THAT'S
NOT ALL THAT SHE PROPOSED LAST
NIGHT.
WHAT ELSE DID WE HEAR?
>> WARREN SEES HERSELF AS A
POLICY STRONG CANDIDATE AND SAID
SHE WANTED TO EXPAND HER SUPPORT
FOR REPARATIONS.
>> I BELIEVE TIME TO START THE
NATIONAL FULL-BLOWN CONVERSATION
ABOUT REPARATIONS IN THIS
COUNTRY.
I SUPPORT THE BILL IN THE HOUSE
TO POINT CONGRESSIONAL PANEL TO
EXPERTS, PEOPLE WHO ARE STUDYING
THIS TO TALK ABOUT DIFFERENT
WAYS WE MAY BE ABLE TO DO IT.
>> SHE ALSO SAYS SHE SUPPORTS
THE REMOVAL OF CONFEDERATE
STATUES AND THE REMOVAL OF THE
CONFEDERATE FLAG WHICH STILL
APPEARS ON THE MISSISSIPPI STATE
FLAG AND ON ANOTHER ISSUE, SHE
