Let the People Pick the President: The Case for Abolishing the Electoral College is a concise political and constitutional argument by Jesse Wegman, a New York Times editorial board member, against the U.S. Electoral College. Written in a clear advocacy style, the book examines how the system works, why it persists, and why Wegman believes it no longer fits a modern democracy. Rather than treating the issue as a purely abstract constitutional debate, it connects history, election results, and current campaign strategy to show how winner-take-all state rules can distort presidential politics. The book argues that the Electoral College is not just imperfect but structurally undemocratic because it can award the presidency to the loser of the popular vote and make voters in safely partisan states feel irrelevant. It also presents reform as achievable, especially through the National Popular Vote interstate compact, which offers a practical route to a national popular vote without requiring a constitutional amendment.
