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.

Why is Heathcliff so eager for Cathy and Linton to marry before Edgar dies?​
Nataly_w [17]

<u>Answer</u>:

Heathcliff so eager for Cathy and Linton to marry before Edgar dies so that she can help him rise and leave her brother’s power.

<u>Explanation</u>:

Heathcliff is one of the main fictional character in the famous novel Wuthering heights, who is mostly known for his romantic situation with his lover Catherine Earnshaw. However, regardless of his strong feelings, Heathcliff insisted that Cathy and Linton marry and this is due to several reasons.  

Around the half of the novel, the character of Heathcliff started changing and developed into an angry, disturbed, unhappy and hostile man. Therefore, the first idea that came into Cathy’s mind was helping him by marrying Lincoln before the death of Edgar. By that, Edgar could use his connection to aid her true lover Heathcliff instead of marrying him as she had no money and having no future with him.
