A soon as the suffrage amendmeol ii ratified and out of the way
there wiJl begin in tbc senate an organized campaign to abolisli the eleo/
tora! cojlege. Tl e proponents of the plan come from difect primary states.
They represent the same political thought that 'brouglR about the direct
election of senators. Now they want to take the next step and bring about
the direct flection of presidents. They seek to make it easy and possible
to have independent candidates for the presidency when the voters of eithar
or both the tviro gfo^rival parties-flit dissatisfied with the nominees of
the national convent^®. They know they will have popular support for
their plan. Jt will be strongly urged in the senate and before the country.
I quote one of the senators who is prepared to take an active part
in the campaign to abolisli the efectond college:
"Everybody knows that nearly all political conventions are manipu-
lated and controlled by powerful influences that haw selfish ends in view
rather than the benefit of all the people. We have a practical illustration
before us at this moment.a few men art able undfcr existing condition*
to control the nominations of two great rival parties, as they have done
recently, without consulting the wishes or the vants of the voters, then
the only right given to the voter is that of choosing between these two
samples which are Bet before him. This is in reality a denial of the right
of suffrage. At least the right of suffrage so given is not absolute.
"If the electoral college were out of the way-nil that would be'neces-
sary would be to unnounce the name of the independent candidate aud to
ith
comply in the different states with the method provided by law for putting
the one name on the ticket. It would be a very simple procedure, inexpen-
sive and perfectly practicable. Every state in the "Union which has .an
official ballot provides for a method of putting nam^eon the ticket which
are noi itotnlnated ty political parties. * Such machinery is already pfp-
vided for in every stjgk and applies to evefy office except those of presi-
dent and vice preside^ and the reason it cannot apply to these positions
isWause-tlw electoral college stands in the way." (
