Matt Mackowiak's Mack On Politics

In the 256th episode, we explore a building movement that is not receiving the national focus that it deserves: The National Popular Vote Compact (nationalpopularvote.com). Our guest is former State Senator Ray Haynes (R-CA), president of the Institute for Research on Presidential Elections and a national spokesman for the National Popular Vote movement.Enough states have banded together to provide 195 electoral votes for the national popular vote, and once they hit 270, the national popular vote winner will be elected President of the United States as the sole determining factor for the first time in American history. Hear how the movement is progressing, how they answer critics, and when this may actually happen.
