Answer:

Explanation:

When George Will says independent candidates could “splinter the electorate”, he means that amalgamation of broad concensus with independent parties through coalition and agreement would eradicate the winner-take-all electoral system.

George Will thinks this is important because winner-take-all electoral votes make the winner look like he/she has won by a large majority or represents national decisiveness even when he/she wins only by a close margin of votes.

In other words, the whole electoral votes of a particular state go in the hands of the winning candidate and the defeated candidate along with the rest of the people who supported the defeated candidate lose all thier electoral votes.

What conclusion about the role of the media can be drawn from these headlines?
ki77a [65]

The correct answer is D.
