Pete Buttigieg wants to get rid of the Electoral College. The former Transportation Secretary, seen as a likely 2028 candidate, has called for electing the U.S. president by national popular vote instead, arguing that "everybody's vote" should count the same. Supporters say it would make every vote matter equally and force candidates to campaign everywhere. Critics say it would let big states and cities dominate and leave rural states behind. Either way, it would need a constitutional amendment. Source: The Hill
