'My view is that every vote matters,' Warren said. 'And the way we can make that happen is that we can have national voting and that means get rid of the Electoral College and every vote counts.'
During a CNN Town Hall in Jackson, Mississippi, 2020 presidential candidate Elizabeth Warren said she was okay with abolishing the Electoral College.
"We need to put some federal muscle behind that and we need to appeal every voter suppression law that is out there right now," Warren added. Warren joins other Democrats such as fellow presidential candidate, and current mayor of South Bend, Indiana, Pete Buttigieg, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez , and Rep. Steve Cohen , among others, who have called for the Electoral College to be abolished.
"Americans expect and deserve the winner of the popular vote to win office. More than a century ago, we amended our Constitution to provide for the direct election of U.S. Senators. It is past time to directly elect our President and Vice President," Cohen added.
