ATTEMPTS TO PASS SIMILAR BILLS
IN PAST SESSIONS HAVE FAILED.
GOVERNOR JARED POLLIS MADE
COLORADO THE 12th STATE TO JOIN
A PLAN TO CREATE THE NATIONAL
POPULAR VOTE.
IT WOULD ELIMINATE THE
ELECTORAL COLLEGE IN
PRESIDENTIAL ELECTIONS.
SUPPORTERS OF THE BILL GIVE
COLORADO VOTERS A DIRECT VOICE.
EVERY VOTER WILL HAVE THEIR
VOTE COUNTED DIRECTLY TOWARD
THEIR CHOICE FOR PRESIDENT.
AND THE PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE
WHO GETS THE MOST VOTES WILL
BECOME PRESIDENT.
THE STATE REPUBLICAN PARTY
DISAGREES, SAYING IN A
STATEMENT, THE NATIONAL POPULAR
VOTE LAW UNCONSTITUTIONALLY
GIVES AWAY EVERY COLORADAN'S
PRESIDENTIAL VOTE TO LARGE
STATES LIKE NEW YORK AND
CALIFORNIA.
