The equal Voter Amendment
The Equal Voter Amendment is a proposed constitutional framework designed to ensure that every elected office in the United States is filled by a candidate who wins real majority support.
It is intentionally simple, non-partisan, and easy to implement.
Core Principles
- Every election must produce a true majority winner (50% + 1).
- If no candidate reaches a majority, an automatic runoff is held between top finishers.
- All candidates appear on a single, non-partisan ballot.
- Every voter has equal power, regardless of party affiliation.
- Election rules should be transparent, easy to understand, and difficult to manipulate.
Why This Matters
- Plurality winners often represent less than half of the electorate.
- Vote-splitting can distort outcomes and silence majorities.
- Majority-supported leaders are more stable, more accountable, and more representative.
- A system built on majority rule strengthens public trust in government.
What This Amendment Is Not
- Not rankedâchoice voting
- Not proportional representation
- Not a tool for any party or ideology
It is simply a return to democratic first principles: the people choose the winner, not the math of a crowded field.
