Story highlights Crow says the presidential campaign has spread vitriol

So far her Change.org petition has garnered nearly 35,000 signatures

(CNN) For Grammy award-winning artist Sheryl Crow, the 2016 presidential campaign has not been her favorite mistake.

Crow, perhaps finding every campaign day to be a winding road, is spreading a petition asking others join her effort to shorten the election process.

Speaking with CNN's Brooke Baldwin on "Newsroom" Tuesday, Crow argued that the race, which has dominated national dialogue for much of the past two years, has only served to divide the nation and spread hate.

"This has gone on so long that we are not learning anything more," Crow said. "It's become just sensationalized. It's incentivizing vitriolic hatred ... just hate talk."
