The Electoral College assigns votes to each state based on the number of representatives and senators in each state. The candidate with the most Electoral College votes wins, as opposed to the popular vote in which the candidate with the most single votes wins.

genuine vote based system would follow. Such an announcement was hopeful, at the same time, right around one hundred years after the fact, there are still a few angles that remain constant. In any case, American history proves that widespread suffrage is not adequate to guarantee genuine vote based system and keep the mistreatment of minority gatherings. From one viewpoint, the rule behind the article's contention is valid. Suffrage is the establishment of the vote-based system. The political…

victory for the winner, and it recognizes the state's role in the federal system. Those that oppose the Electoral College argue that it is dangerous because the chance of electing the popular vote loser as it did in 1888 and 2000 with Harrison and Bush respectively.

voters vote him these criminals will not be allowed into this country any longer. He scares people into believing that they must vote for him so he can get a wall built to keep criminals out.

I now realize that some voters may fall for this tactic because they’re intimidated and…

Our American Democracy today is being affected due to the current campaign environment and is also affecting American Political Parties. Party realignment in the United States is when the balance…

The youth of today tend to be seen as lazy, incompetent children who feel entitled to everything they see. The media paints The Millennials and Generation Z as a group of people who feel too privileged to vote. Although the 18-25 year olds statistically have one of the lowest voter turnouts, they overwhelmingly vote Democratic. In a poll conducted in 2014, 51% of 18-25 year olds voted Democratic, whereas 35% voted Republican. (A Deep Dive Into Party Affiliation, 2015). Based on the several…

Instead of voting on elected officials, citizens vote…

America’s electoral system, which is now relevant in light of the 2016 presidential election.
