The Vote That Doesn’t Exist: America’s Missing Right to Vote and the Electoral College Trap

from Solving America's Problems

The U.S. Constitution never guarantees the right to vote—and that gap still shapes democracy today. Jerremy and Dave expose how the Electoral College distorts representation, how felon disenfranchisement silences millions, and why reforms like ranked-choice voting could reset a two-party system at war with itself. A system without universal access isn’t broken—it’s incomplete.Timestamps:(00:00) The Missing Right: Why Voting Isn’t in the Constitution(01:44) Electoral College: Democracy’s Built-In Design Flaw(12:16) Felon Voting Rights: Punishment or Redemption?(18:51) Ranked-Choice Voting: Democracy’s Reset Button(24:17) The 130 Million Problem: Why So Many Don’t Vote
