OUR MISSION

The Making Every Vote Count Foundation is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, nonpartisan organization, dedicated to electing the President by a direct national popular vote.

Under our current election system, not all votes count equally and the entire election process—from choosing candidates; campaigning for the nomination and in the general election; messaging and policy choices; and governance after elections—is geared toward winning the electoral votes of the four to ten swing states with less than 20% of the country’s population. This uneven distribution of voter capital contributes to concerns about voter suppression, election subversion, and election integrity, as well as alarmingly low public confidence in presidential elections.

The MEVC Foundation’s goal is to analyze, prepare studies, inform the public, and further the discussion of these concerns; to highlight the weaknesses of the current system; and to promote a national dialogue on abolishing the Electoral College and replacing it with a direct national popular vote.
