In front of every Colorado voter this fall will be an innovative way to expand the voting rights of every Coloradan and American. It is called Proposition 113, or the National Popular Vote. The League of Women Voters supports it and encourages all Coloradans to vote Yes. When enacted, the National Popular Vote will make sure every vote for president matters and every voter across the country is relevant in each presidential election.

The National Popular Vote ensures that the candidate who receives the most popular votes throughout the country will win. It treats the race for president like a nationwide election – because that’s what it really is – by making sure every vote from every state is counted towards each candidate’s grand total.

Let’s get one step closer to Congressman Lewis’ goal by making sure one person always equals one vote. This fall, let’s vote Yes on Proposition 113, the National Popular Vote.
