"Their civic education isn’t only at the polls. I try to foster voting excitement at home, so this year I made pretend ballots for each of my kids using VOTE411.org to look up our local candidates and ballot measures." https://www.lwv.org/blog/bringing-my-toddlers-polls

Here's how the Electoral College works:

1. You cast your vote;

2. Election workers determine which candidate won the popular vote in your state (or DC);

3. The Electoral College representatives from your state/DC vote for president on your behalf, casting their ballots for your state/DC's popular vote winner;

4. The candidate who earns 270 or more votes is elected president.

The Electoral College is an outdated system that takes power out of the people's hands.

It’s no wonder that a majority of poll respondents would prefer for the president to be elected by the national popular vote.
