The Electoral System of the USA
Introduction to the Presidential Elections:
● The US presidential elections have become a spectacle for
people in America and across the world. Every four years, the
American people choose their next president through a complex process.
Primary Elections and Caucuses:
● Before a US president can be elected, candidates need to go
through a process that is referred to as the primary elections
and caucuses. The main difference between the primary
elections and caucuses is that the latter is run by state parties. Open vs. Closed Primaries:
● In an open primary state, both party voters and unaffiliated
voters can cast their ballots. In a closed primary state, only
those who are registered to the specific party are able to vote for a nominee.
Role of Primaries and Caucuses:
● Both the primaries and caucuses begin at the start of an
election year and play a significant role in determining each
party's nominee for the presidential race.
National Conventions and Nomination:
● At the national convention, delegates do a final, formal vote to
determine the party nominee. The vote reflects the candidate
who received the highest number of votes from the primaries and caucuses. General Election Campaigning:
● Once both parties pick their nominees, the real presidential
race begins. Candidates will host rallies, make TV
commercials, and participate in debates. Trump called for election:

Election Day and Voting Process:
● Election day rolls around every four years on the Tuesday after
the first Monday in November. The popular vote matters, but
the president is elected through the accumulation of 270 or more electoral votes. The Electoral College:
● The Electoral College is made up of a group of electors, split
bamongst all 50 states and Washington, D.C. The number of
electors that each state holds is determined by the number of
members that state has in Congress. About Electoral College:

● In the case that no candidate receives a majority of electoral
votes, the House of Representatives would choose the next
president, while the Senate would choose their vice president.
End of Election Process and Inauguration:
● At the start of January, Congress comes together to count the
electoral votes and announce the new president. Inauguration
day then falls on January 20th.
Requirements for Presidential Candidates:
● There are requirements for who can run for office, including
being a natural born US citizen, at least 35 years old, and a
resident of the United States for a minimum of 14 years.
Consistency and Future Debates:
● Although some details of the election process have changed
over time, the method of electing a US president has stayed
fairly consistent due to its inclusion in the Constitution. There
is ongoing debate about whether the electoral college should be reformed or eradicated.
