From our nation’s founding until 1920, women were generally shunned from American politics and virtually invisible in our democracy. Laws and policies ensured that we were largely not seen and not heard. The founding of the League of Women Voters, by the very suffragists who fought for the passage of the 19th Amendment, is an important part of women’s history in this nation – and that history should never be erased.
The process known as the Electoral College is at the center of a lot of debate and confusion since it does not guarantee that the candidate with the most votes nationwide will win the presidency. To level the the playing field, the League of Women Voters is promoting the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact (NPVIC). Good news: Connecticut is already part of the Compact. Bad news: That could change this year.
