ELECTORAL COLLEGE
What's the big deal about the Electoral College? You can read all about it in this issue, which is devoted to that subject. (Just in time for the 2004 elections!) We take a look at its historical origins, for example, to see just what the Founding Fathers were thinking when they established this system for electing our president. There also are articles that focus on several specific elections where the electoral college played an important role, information to encourage a debate about the pros and cons of the college, and an activity for you to work with the votes and see how the electoral and popular votes add up in an election. We've included a U.S. map that indicates the number of electoral votes for each state.
