In the 1980 Presidential Election, the electoral vote had Ronald Reagan as the winner even while Reagan had the popular vote. Same thing happened with Bill Clinton in the 1992 Presidential Election. Another thing to note, Reagan is a republican and Bill Clinton is a democrat, which means the electoral vote does not have favorites.  ]]> 2020-02-07 21:14:05 UTC https://padlet.com/3553811/wd9y2m3wkexw/wish/442418756 3553811 https://padlet.com/3553811/wd9y2m3wkexw/wish/442418788 1.

Therefore, the Electoral College was invented to choose the president indirectly. In order, for the framers to work on balancing the needs of small and large states, as well as slave and free states.]]> 2020-02-07 21:19:26 UTC https://padlet.com/3553811/wd9y2m3wkexw/wish/442420477 3553811 https://padlet.com/3553811/wd9y2m3wkexw/wish/442420518 Popular Vote- the votes that do not contribute to the elections. The popular vote is a group of votes that the nation submit. The candidate that wins the popular vote would be the most favored candidate. 
Electoral Vote- the electoral vote is the vote that determines which candidate will become president. The Electoral College decides on the electoral vote, no one else. ]]> 2020-02-07 21:19:34 UTC https://padlet.com/3553811/wd9y2m3wkexw/wish/442420518 3553811 https://padlet.com/3553811/wd9y2m3wkexw/wish/442420607 This document is Pro Electoral College because the document shows that there is an equal amount of equality in voting for a candidate. In both pictures, both candidates on the democratic and republican parties had a close election, with one candidate winning by a small percentage. A candidate from the two political parties won on separate years, making the electoral college fair. ]]> 2020-02-07 21:19:53 UTC https://padlet.com/3553811/wd9y2m3wkexw/wish/442420607
