Making All Votes Count!: Using Equal Voice Voting in Presidential Elections

By Jerry Spriggs

If the recent presidential election caught your attention and left you surprised (favorably or frustrated), "Making All Votes Count!" is a must read. Can we fix the Electoral College? Should it be replaced? Is there a better solution? "Making All Votes Count!" addresses these concerns and shows how we, on a state-by-state basis, can make everyone's vote matter in our presidential elections like never before. "Making All Votes Count!" presents a new presidential voting approach called, Equal Voice Voting (visit www.equalvoicevoting.com). The book compares the presidential election results from 1960-2016 with what could have happened in those elections if Equal Voice Voting were used instead. "Making All Votes Count!" shows how popular votes matter while also emphasizing each state's total voting voice. Equal Voice Voting preserves the Electoral College and retains the Founding Fathers' intent without requiring a Constitutional amendment. "Making All Votes Count!" explains how the popular vote, the national popular vote and congressional district voting approaches work--and fail. Gerrymandering, major and minor political party candidates, and Constitutional tenets and history are discussed. It explains why these things matter."Making All Votes Count!" can be used as an educational tool, as a ready reference for past presidential elections and as a tool to encourage future legislation. As a fact-based resource, "Making All Votes Count" urges readers and legislators alike to remedy our current all-or-nothing voting approach that causes many votes (and voters) to not matter in the final presidential election results. Past elections are fully examined and show how our Electoral College results do not reflect the sentiment of the governed, whether the voters are from populated centers or Middle America. "Making All Votes Count!" gives promise to better future presidential elections, making our Electoral College work for us all!
