Luncheon: Save Our States Electoral College—Albuquerque

The Constitution creates a multi-step democratic process to elect the president and vice president--the Electoral College. It unifies, moderates, and protects American politics, and is part of what makes the United States a federal republic.

Today, this system is threatened by a campaign to manipulate the Electoral College using an interstate compact. This “National Popular Vote” scheme threatens to create a constitutional crisis.

Join the Rio Grande Foundation, as we host Trent England as he discusses the importance of the Electoral College and what you can do to help safeguard the American republic. This event is co-sponsored by the New Mexico Federalist Society.
