Political science, not political science-fiction. A student-run magazine at Binghamton University.
The United States prides itself on democratic and egalitarian values. Despite this, we choose to elect our executive by means of an Electoral College, which due to its nature, sometimes produces antimajoritarian election outcomes. These results go against the wishes of a majority of voters.
When citizens of the United States cast their ballots for President in the popular vote, they elect a slate of electors called the United States Electoral College. The discussion of whether or not the Electoral College should be abolished is an ongoing argument among American citizens.
