Safeguard: An Electoral College Story
"What if something you modified had unexpected ramifications that you had no way of anticipating?" Safeguard: That is the question raised in an Electoral College Story about presidential elections. What is the actual operation of the system? And what would be the ramifications of altering the rules? Alexander Hamilton and James Madison worked together to draft the United States Constitution's Electoral College structure and to defend it. The process is democratic, although it takes place in stages and through the several state governments. Candidates are compelled to reach out across the country rather than concentrating on a single region or group of population centers as a result of its arrangement. Furthermore, it prevents presidents from exerting control over elections, including their own reelection. Steve Forbes, a publisher and past presidential candidate, as well as Princeton historian Allen Guelzo and a number of other experts, explain why we have the Electoral College, what it does, and what might happen if we did away with it.
