Write a one page essay explaining how the electoral college works and also explains whether or not you believe the Electoral col
GalinKa [24]

Explanation:

The electoral college can be understood as a group of people chosen to represent voters and appoint the president and vice president every four years.

Therefore, each State has a number of delegates corresponding to and proportionate to its population and to the deputies and senators of that State, and so each delegate is represented by one vote and each candidate needs to obtain a number corresponding to 270 or more to be elected.

This system was created in conjunction with the American constitution and had the central objective of allowing greater control over voting due to the precarious communication at the time, and there is also a predilection for the electoral college by smaller states, which feel more represented in the use of this system.

However, there is still a very long delay in the counting of votes and perhaps this system may not reflect the will of the majority of the population, since even if a candidate has a greater number of total votes, he cannot win the contest if he does not win in the delegates.

It is interesting that there is a restructuring of this American electoral system, duly voted by the population to choose whether direct voting would be a faster and more democratic option.

An idea of ​​modernization would be the adoption of a voting system by electronic ballot boxes, with high anti-fraud protection and greater speed and security in the counting of votes and results.
