Empirically Evaluating the Electoral College
Analyzes historical electoral data as a basis for possible reform of the Electoral College system in the US. The belief that the Electoral College may be biased in favor of one party is surmised through a study of the relationship between the average vote share of a party's candidate & the likelihood of winning a majority of the Electoral College. Next, the effect of the Electoral College on the voting power of individual citizens, namely their influence on election outcome, is compared with a popular vote system. The results of these analyses do not defend reform of the Electoral College system. 4 Figures. L. Collins Leigh

The E-College in the E-Age
Explores the relevancy of the electoral college in the "e-age," especially in light of the 2000 US presidential election. This close election forced Americans to once again question the reasoning behind the establishment of the electoral college, the "winner-take-all" approach, & the electors' lack of any real political power. Should the questions raised by the 2000 election cause Americans to reconsider the electoral college system? Though this question has been raised many times since Nov 2000, a replacement for the electoral college is virtually impossible to conceive. The current system has many defects; however, debates that place the "one person, one vote" argument against the "principles of federalism" usually come up short because the "one person, one vote" concept means something entirely different in ND than it does in CA.
