The names on the ballot will not be Harris or Trump
But on November 5, as we have seen, Americans will not find Trump or Harris on the ballotBut in their representation, they represent the great voters. From here begins the final stage of the road to the White House. The “college of great voters” is often cited, but the expression simply refers to a group 538 representatives: There is no body or institution that meets in any place. They are the competent authorities Every country Who start counting the votes and determining the number of voters. In 48 out of 50 states, a pure majority rule applies: whoever gets just one vote wins the entire pool of voters. Let's take an example ca: If out of 20 million registered voters, 10 million The more voters choose great Democrats, everyone 54 seats They go to Harris and zero to Trump, despite him getting 9.999 million votes. Exceptions are Nebraska and MaineRepresentatives are distributed according to the proportional system between the majority and the minority. This system explains why the candidate who receives the most votes in the country can lose the election. The last time this happened in 2016 to Hillary Clinton: it piled up Three million more preferences than Donald TrumpBut that was not enough to become the first female president of the United States. The explanation is that Clinton It was far away Trump In more liberal countries, e.g ca and New Yorkbut was narrowly defeated elsewhere, as in Pennsylvania, Michigan, wisconsin. He jumped ahead in the popular vote count, but his rival took the lead Senior voters He found himself, against all odds, in… Oval Office.
