(8:35am) Trent England from Save Our States talks about keeping our presidential election process.

Information from Save Our States: 

Today, Dec. 11, is the deadline for states to certify presidential election results, the final step before presidential electors meet and vote on December 17.

Save Our States is an organization that defends the Electoral College and the constitutional power of the states. Highlighting how this process is a reminder of the importance of our multi-step presidential election process, its executive director, Trent England, said:

“Between Election Day and Inauguration Day, the Electoral College ensures that every state plays a part in the process of electing our President and Vice President. Each state’s certification of its own election results is an important step, providing a check on election integrity and affirming the value of voters in every part of the country. This process to choose our national executive, outlined in the Constitution, unifies, moderates, and protects our unique form of government. We must continue to reject any calls to dilute the electoral college or alter it with dangerous election schemes like the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact (NPV).”

Save Our States created the Electoral College 101 website, a comprehensive resource for voters about how our President and Vice President are elected and how our election system works.
