In the 2000 presidential election Arizona had 8 electoral votes. What best explains the change shown on this map
Liula [17]

You didn't show a map, but I can explain how electoral college votes are determined.  Arizona's number of electoral votes has been growing because its state population has been growing at a rate faster than other states, and some states have seen shrinking of their population.

Here's what the National Archives says concerning how Electoral College delegates are assigned: Electoral votes are allocated among the states based on the Census. Every state is allocated a number of votes equal to the number of senators and representatives in its U.S. Congressional delegation—two votes for its senators in the U.S. Senate plus a number of votes equal to the number of its members in the U. S. House of Representatives.

So the number of electoral votes each state gets (of the 538 total electoral votes) is recalculated every ten years, based on the most recent US Census data.

In the 2000 presidential election, Arizona had 8 electoral votes, as it had also in the 1992 and 1996 elections.  That number was based on the 1990 Census figures for population.  In the elections previous to that, in 1984 and 1988, Arizona had 7 electoral votes, based on population numbers from the 1980 Census.  In the elections of 2004 and 2008, Arizona had 10 electoral votes based on 2000 Census data.  In 2012 and 2016, Arizona had 11 electoral votes based on the 2010 Census.  So you can see that Arizona's relative share of the national population has continued to grow and affect its share of Electoral College votes.

Young people have historically failed to participate in the election process - fewer young people vote than those of other age g
Nikolay [14]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Indeed, young people have historically failed to participate in the election process - fewer young people vote than those of other age groups.

I think this occurs because young people feel there is a lot of corruption and lies in the political system, and that politicians do not act with integrity.

Many youngsters notice how legislators endlessly argue with each other in the House of Representatives and the Senate, or how is the relationship between the executive branch and the legislative branch. And they don't like what they see. They turn to the other side

How does this negatively impact democracy in the US?

Of course, that behavior is not good because youngsters are the next generation that is going to run the United States.

They have to be prepared, informed, ready to fill the highest political spots and corporative spots to take the US into the next decade. And if they are not informed and actively participate in politics, it is going to be difficult for them to understand what the country needs to move forward.
