| This episode of CBSN Originals' Speaking Frankly series explores whether the Electoral College helps or hurts American democracy. Four elections in U.S. history, including the election of former President Trump in 2016, ended with the loser of the popular vote becoming president by winning the majority of electoral college votes. A fierce debate has developed over whether the Electoral College is anti-democratic - taking power out of the hands of the people - or if it's a vital safeguard against a tyranny of the majority. In the CBSN Originals half-hour documentary Do We Still Need the Electoral College?, we hear from those for and against the Electoral College system - including electors and former vice presidential nominee Joe Lieberman - who debate how abolishing the Electoral College in favor of the popular vote would impact democracy in America. | |
