28th Amendment

                I am proposing that we add a 28th amendment to the Constitution. I believe that the winners in an election are based on popular vote. Elections should be decided how the people vote and not how many electoral votes someone gets.

                I feel that more people would vote if elections were decided on popular vote because they would feel that their votes are more important. I believe that people would have more of a say in the government if they elections were based this way because their opinion would matter more.

                Also if elections were based on popular vote, small states would have more of a say in elections. Right now small states like South Dakota and its people only get 3 votes in a presidential election, but if elections were based on popular vote, the many people living here would be a bigger part of the election and their votes would matter more.
