Answer: C It allows for faithless electors, or electors who do not vote according to the wishes of their states
Explanation:
"The Electoral College", set out in Article II, Section 1 of the U.S. Constitution, allows states to have the same power of votes in spite of their number of population.
Due to that, a party could outcast the presidential candidate they don't want, even if such candidate was elected by the majority.
The parties nominate electors, usually by a central committee or the conventions; so when voters cast their ballot for President, they are actually voting for their "State's Electors", who are not obliged to follow the results of the popular vote, thus sometimes “faithless electors” adversely choose a candidate they're not committed to.
A "faithless elector" is simply a member of the "Electoral College" who votes against the party's candidate.
Thereby the answer is (c): "It allows for faithless electors, or electors who do not vote according to the wishes of their states"
Answer:
. It allows for faithless electors, or electors who do not vote according to the wishes of their states.
Explanation:
In the Electoral College system, each state in the country is allowed to present a certain number of electors based on its total number of representatives in Congress. Each elector is expected to cast one electoral vote following the general election; there are a total of 538 electoral votes in all. Any candidate that gets more than half (270) wins the election.
This system allow electors to cast votes according to their own wishes or change their preferred candidates spontaneously without punishment from their states. This allows for faithless electors and is a major criticism of the electoral college system.
