Majority

The electoral college is a system of voting based on the population of each state. The states with larger populations have more electoral votes, which means the majority vote of each state is what those electoral votes represent on a national level. The electoral college should be modified where each state has the same amount of votes no matter the population. The votes should be counted and the electoral college shouldn’t have the final say. Also people who already have a place in office…

that the majority of people here are white, but as I dug deeper into the census, I found some really interesting percentages. I found out that in Fort Worth, Texas there is more of a majority of white people with sixty-five point two percent, but Hispanics take a close second with thirty-four point one percent. It's amazing how in a span of only eighteen and a half miles the population percentages can be that different. As I was interviewing people as to what they believed the majority is, I…

responsible for upholding our rights. The election exercise of Congress, is considered legitimate since Representatives and Senators are elected directly by the citizens. In the Congress, power is always determined by the superiority system. In the majority party which is the party which controls the Congress, an individual who has worked for the longest term has the highest power. The only challenge with the superiority structure is that authority is not based on assuming the position of power…

of Tennessee is 35%. After their first win against a 3A/4A school the cops did not allow them to shake hands, they told their team to get on the bus and go home. It is ironic how a majority white team use to pay a majority black team $3,000 to get their butts kicked, but when the majority black team wins the majority white team does not want to shake hands. Manassas was at the bottom of their class, “there is a lot of folks out east of here that don’t think we belong”, said by Courtney. When…

Congress is made up the House of Representatives and senate. The house of representatives currently has four hundred and thirty five members. The number of representatives per state are decided by the population of the state. Member of the house of representative are up for election every two year meaning they are always “campaigning”. Representatives tend to keep closer relationships to their constituents so they are aware of their current needs. This leads them to focus on legislation which…

Clause, I could not subscribe to the majority's disposition of the case. As the majority explicitly holds, once a state legislature determines to elect electors through a popular vote, the right to have one's vote counted is of constitutional stature. 11 As the majority further acknowledges, Florida law holds that all ballots that reveal the intent of the voter constitute valid votes. Recognizing these principles, the majority nonetheless orders the termination of the contest proceeding before…

In a majority-minority society, my belief is that it will be imperative for racial justice advocates to adapt within their new climate, address unique obstacles that may arise, and rectify unresolved injustices. I am both African-American and Puerto Rican, both of which are underrepresented in the legal field, one of the least diverse occupations that is currently 88% White. Personally, I hope for a future with a significantly higher prevalence of minorities within the legal field, reflecting…

read or write… shall be punished by confinement in the jail” (Document A), proclaiming their power as the majority over those who did not have the right to speak. The Southern states believed that slavery was justice due to the fact that they were the ones fueling their economy through the maintenance of crops through a plantation owner’s farm. As shown in the Segregation Laws Map of 1953, majority of Southern States began segregating after the fourteenth amendment was passed. Some of these…

will say that a democracy only means people have the right to vote, and everyone does have the right to vote in the United States. But a democracy means much more. If people are not voting then the Nation is not being run by its people, because the majority of the people are not putting in their say. This is true because if a president wins by 51% but the voter turnout was only 40%, then only 21% of the nation approves of the president. This means that the Uniteds States are being run by the…

alternative method to this is using the popular vote from each state, or state winners. The best method for replacing the Electoral College is using state winners, where the candidate with the popular vote in that state wins the state and would need a majority of 51 votes to win presidency. First, every state has the same number of votes, so the candidates would have or give their attention to all of the states. With the votes being equal, larger states will not have as much power over the…
