South Bend Mayor Pete Buttigieg stated that if he was elected as president of the United States, he would try to heal the divide in the country and reassure Americans about the voting process in part by abolishing the Electoral College.

“I think the work that has to go on right away is to make sure our institutions actually reflect us,” Buttigieg replied, when asked, what he would do to reinforce the legitimacy of the election system. “Not that we have majority popular rule on every decision, but there should at least be some resemblance between the decisions that are being made and what the American people want.”
