Election Uniformity for the only Nationally Elected office
Presently, the process is not nationally-standardized for the only nationally-elected office; President of "The United States of America".
Revise the Failing Presidential Electoral System — The US Presidential Election is the only nationally elected office of our government and should remain a two-stage election process.

- if none of the candidates receive the majority of the total number of registered voter's consent in any given district or county, that electoral vote will not go to any candidate. This way, voters will never feel the "need" top vote for the Lesser of Evils on any given ballot.
