allows for a person’s vote to count, but in an ancillary way it determines the number of senators a state can have it creates a loophole for non US citizens to vote
The correct answer is B) it allows a person's vote to count but in an ancillary way.
<em>The Electoral College is a form of indirect democracy in that it allows a person's vote to count but in an ancillary way.</em>
In the United States presidential elections, the winner is not the candidate that receives the majority of votes, like in other countries. The winner is decided by the Electoral College that is formed just for the Presidential election. The U.S. Electoral College has 538 electors and it is needed 270 electors for a candidate to win the election. That is why the Electoral College is a form of indirect democracy in that it allows a person's vote to count but in an ancillary way.
