Answer:

1. Three criticisms of the College are made:

It is “undemocratic;”

It permits the election of a candidate who does not win the most votes; and.

Its winner-takes-all approach cancels the votes of the losing candidates in each state.

2. Following a census, the seats in the U.S. House of Representatives are automatically divided according to the census data. If a state has gained population, it may receive more seats. If a state has lost population, it may lose seats, meaning it would also lose votes in presidential campaigns.

I hope this helps you.

How did modern india gain its independence
miss Akunina [59]

The modern day country of India gained its independence mostly in a peaceful manner. Led by Gandhi, the people of India were getting out on protests constantly for a prolonged period of time. Great Britain, weakened from the wars, saw that it will not be able to control this massive country and massive population, so a decision was made that an independence is granted to India. The way in which the independence came did not came to a very positive reaction, the reason being that the historic territory was divided into three separate countries, largely based on religion, with Pakistan and Bangladesh being the two separated territories. The joy of freedom was quickly replaced by numerous conflicts based mostly on religion, with the Hindu and Muslim populations clashing with each other, and millions of people suffering because of it.
