Plurality is when a candidate has the most votes, but still has fewer than 50% of the total votes. This is possible if there are three or more candidates. Majority means the candidate has more than 50%. To become president, a candidate needs at least 270 electoral votes out of 538 (majority). Each state has a certain amount of electoral votes which are not the same as actual votes. A candidate can win the popular vote by having the most individuals vote for them, but lose the election because another candidate earned the majority of the electoral votes.

Harrison was the first Whig president.

First, they launch exploratory committees who research the viability of the candidate running for office.

If the research is positive, the candidate will announce their candidacy and travel around the country to canvass support and win primaries. The first of these will be held in New Hampshire.

After the primaries, a party convention is held where candidates nominate their candidate officially and this person when begins to campaign for the general election.
