Garlin Gilchrist opens the state s Electoral College session at the state Capitol, Monday, Dec. 14, 2020 in Lansing, Mich. Michigan s House elections committee heard testimony Tuesday in support of a pair of bills that would dramatically change how the state awards its Electoral College votes. Under legislation introduced by Rep. Beau LaFave, R-Iron Mountain, and Rep. Jeff Yaroch, R-Richmond, Electoral College votes would be awarded to the winner in each congressional district with two votes going to the statewide winner. Michigan currently awards all its Electoral College votes to the statewide winner.

Michigan House unveils ethics overhaul with lobby, disclosure reforms

Lansing The Republican and Democratic leaders of the Michigan House revealed a plan Tuesday to institute wide-ranging government ethics reforms, targeting policies that have been ranked worst nationally for transparency. At least some of the bills are proposing fundamental changes for lobbying and disclosure laws, which have been agreed on by House members on both sides of the aisle. They will be introduced later this week and discussed in committee beginning next week. If all of them became law, they would alter how Lansing operates, providing additional oversight, de-emphasizing the so-called lame duck period and changing the House process for deciding when bills take effect. Similar reforms have been debated in Michigan for years.

Your Views: Need national popular vote | Alexandria Times

To the editor: If we learned anything from this year’s election, it’s that the current system of electing the president is deeply undemocratic. The fate and future of our country shouldn’t rest on a few key precincts in a handful of swing states – every voter in every state should matter. That’s why I think fixing the Electoral College must be a priority in 2021. The Virginia General Assembly has the opportunity to help make that happen by passing the National Popular Vote bill – a law that awards a state’s Electoral College votes to the presidential candidate who gets the most votes overall. It would only take effect once it is passed by states holding 270 electoral votes. Virginia must lend its 13 electoral votes to the cause, bringing us to 209 electoral votes and one step closer to giving the power of our democracy back to the American people.
