| Summary: | Electoral Bait and Switch is prescriptive and accessible to the general reader. If it is not challenged and overturned, we are likely to face a continual series of electoral and constitutional crises as the current elector system discriminates heavily against minority and poorer voters. The winner-take-all method of allocating electoral votes also results in large pockets of "useless votes" and a system in which where your vote counts for far more than how you vote. Most ominously, evidence is now clear that the electoral vote system has opened the door for voter suppression and manipulation of elections by domestic and foreign conspirators. |
