Question

The U.S. Constitution stipulates that Electors will vote for the office of President and Vice President, what we commonly refer to as the Electoral College. Two times in the 21st century the candidate with the most popular votes across the United States has not won the most votes in the Electoral College, hence losing the election. Some activists and scholars are arguing that a democratic system of government requires that majority rules; therefore, the candidate for President who receives the most popular votes should win the election. Further, there is a proposal to bypass the Electoral College without having to amend the Constitution (which is basically impossible).

Compare the way in which we elect Presidents in our current system to the proposal of the National Popular Vote movement. Which method is superior? Explain your answer.

Answer 1

National popular voting system is best regarded and efficient for US as popularity determines the likeability and voting based on popularity and likelihood will ensure right candidates are elected as Democracy calls for right to choose ajd hence the population of USA must decide, sijce the Constitution is for the people and by the people.

However amendments to Constitution is must for this which will invite serious criticism from Lower ajd Upper house snd thus passing new bill will take rounds lf negotiations with opposition parties.
