The 2020 presidential election has been a disaster for people who think the Electoral College is still a good idea. Joe Biden’s clear victory has been followed by attempts by the incumbent president to induce Republican legislators and other elected Republican officials in five states he lost to ignore the certified vote counts in their states and substitute their partisan preferences for the voters’ decision. Now Congress will formally receive the electoral votes, after a series of attempts to subvert the democratic process, all made possible by the Electoral College.

Answer:
During the Iran Contra scandal, it was uncovered that the Reagan administration was providing illegal aid to anti-communist rebels in Central America.
Explanation:
The Iran-Contra scandal, also known as Irangate, was a political event that took place in 1985 and 1986, in which senior officials of the United States government, under the administration of President Ronald Reagan, facilitated the sale of arms to Iran, a country against which an arms embargo weighed. Both operations, the sale of arms and the financing of the Contra, were prohibited by the US Senate.
The operation to sell arms to Iran produced more than 47 million dollars, money that was managed by Oliver North through a network of bank accounts in Switzerland and was used, mainly, to finance the aggression against the government of Nicaragua and support to the Contra.
Third parties struggle to be heard. Third parties often are required to get thousands of signatures on a petition to simply get on a ballot. On the state and federal level, the government sets various election rules and standards. This control allows them to keep the 2 main parties (Democrat and Republican) in power and keep third parties out. Third parties have hurt them in the past and lost them major elections. Both parties have lost presidential elections in the past. Third parties face the great financial hardships of trying to match or beat the financial means of the 2 parties. Trying to raise the money to be heard on a national stage is near impossible when competing against these older more established parties. Often times, for any type of financial help the third party must meet a certain percentage of the vote to qualify, which they almost never do. Third parties also have to fight with the ideological differences that separate them from the other larger parties. How can they stand out apart from this larger group? They are often either too extreme or not extreme enough to separate themselves. Many times the third parties are often absorbed and lost in the 2 larger parties.
