What is the fewest number of states a candidate needs to win to become president

History
1 answer:
djverab [1.8K]3 years ago
3 0

Assuming no faithless electors: eleven. These are the states with the most electoral votes:

California (55 votes)
Texas (38 votes)
Florida (29 votes)
New York (29 votes)
Illinois (20 votes)
Pennsylvania (20 votes)
Ohio (18 votes)
Georgia (16 votes)
Michigan (16 votes)
North Carolina (15 votes)
New Jersey (14 votes)

If somebody managed to win those 11 states and no others, that person would have a majority in the electoral college and win the presidency.

Realistically, though, this won’t happen. California, New York, Illinois and New Jersey are heavily Democratic and won’t vote Republican unless there’s a huge landslide that would mean a lot of states that are normally reliably Democratic would vote Republican. Texas and Georgia are reliably Republican

What judeo-christian and greco-roman values and beliefs support a democratic system?
jenyasd209 [6]

One of the main qualities for Greeks was justice, but then again this had a much wider meaning than it does in English. It meant also treating people justly and justifiably. In Greco-Roman law the defendant had the right to guard himself, although deprived of money he was left defending himself. The Greek city states could be oligarchies or a division of the army, or a restricted democracy. Rome started as a kingdom and then turn into a republic – in the first place, aristocratic only but then merchants got voted, and after much widespread anxiety the people were embodied by the Tribune. Furthermore, any Roman citizen could vote, a major concern at that period.
