My petition is to abolish the 12th Amendment of the US Constitution which put into law The Electoral College

In 1804 the 12th amendment was proposed because in that era communication was limited. There was no internet, phones, TVs, and very few newspapers. 40% of Americans were illiterate at this time. They believed that we were not knowledgeable enough on the candidates to cast a direct vote. Now we are very capable of making an educated vote and we don’t need an EC to cast a majority vote for us. This amendment makes the minority voters in their own state not count. Take NYS which has voted for Dem president for the last 6 elections. In the last president election NYS voted 62% for Dem, which means all 29 of NYS EC votes go for Dem under the 12th amendment. So if you voted for Rep your vote no longer counted in NYS.
