To: The Illinois State House and The Illinois State Senate
County Electorial Votes
I petition the State of Illinois to assign electorial votes to the counties of Illinois as is done with States in the National Elections. This will give better representation of the entire state compared to the current voting by popular vote.
Why is this important?
I would like to see the counties in the State of Illinois receive electorial votes like states receive in the National Elections. It has become increasingly unfair where the biggest percentage of a state's population lies in large metropolitan areas. As it turns out, especially in Illinois, the wishes of the population in Northern Illinois overshadow the needs of the downstate population. A better sampling can be taken with the use of county electorial votes.
