To get rid of the electoral college, we have to start local. Vote and campaign in your town to have ranked choice voting, then move up to your county, then state, and then spread the effort to nearby states. The point is that this is something that requires a bottom up approach, not a top down one. Most people don’t even know what the alternatives are and how they work, we have to normalize and implement them. It’s also easier to influence local and regional politics over national ones, which makes your votes and efforts more impactful.
Do you do all that before or after you go to college, get married, buy a house for white picket fence, have three children, rank up at your 9:00 to 5:00, and lock down your pension?
Cuz I got to be honest I’m not really sure if the past is really much of a path
