Here’s how the United States votes:
The process:
The Constitution of the United States of America requires an electoral college that actually consists of 538 representatives or electors to elect the President.
Electors are chosen by the committees of state parties; the number is determined by the strength of the House of Representatives and Senates of a state. The electors typically follow a winner-takes-all system, voting in their state for whichever candidate has received the popular vote.
Are popular votes able to count?
With the exception of Maine and Nebraska, the presidential candidate who wins the popular vote in the state takes up half the state’s votes, causing their electoral vote to be divided.
The nominee wins with 270 electoral votes or more. Nationally, winning the election is not enough. In 2016, Hillary Clinton gained the popular vote by three million, but Donald Trump got further electoral votes.
Thanks to the Pandemic Covid-19 …
More than a third of all registered voters (including President Trump) already have cast their ballots in a record-setting early voting turnout in person and by mail.
In parallel to the general elections…
On November 3November 3, Americans would also vote to elect 435 house members of Representatives, 33 members of the Senate (one-third of a 100 upper house seats are up for vote per election cycle), 11 state governments (plus two of the US territories), and representatives of 86 state legislatures (lower and upper house).
The Election Expense:
It is projected that the 2020 White House, House of Representatives, elections would cost an unprecedented $14 billion, a high. This covers funds raised by candidates, parties, and external bodies, which does not include state government expenditures. The first presidential candidate to collect $1 billion or more maybe Joe Biden.
Outcomes:
This time, because of the sheer number of mailed-in votes, they will take longer to be revealed. Before election day, some states will start counting their mail-in votes, some will start on election day, most will wait until the voting closes.
This election’s key problems are:
Covid-19:
Biden has made the reaction of the Trump administration to the outbreak the center of his campaign. ‘I believe in Science,’ he posted. Donald Trump has not. It’s that straightforward.’
The Economy:
Widespread closing and downsizing of firms was the crippling result of the Covid-19 pandemic. Around Feb and April, approximately 22 million jobs were destroyed.
National Defense:
In a Gallup survey, suspected intervention by Russia, China, and Iran in the 2016 presidential elections arose as a concern via the propagation of misinformation online.
Health Care:
Republicans want the Health Care Act passed by former President Barack Obama to be repealed and restored. A lawsuit immediately after the elections is scheduled to be heard by the Supreme Court.
Immigrations:
His stance against undocumented immigrants was the flashpoint of Trump’s term, as well as the wall he constructed along the border with Mexico in an effort to keep them out.
Race:
The killing of unarmed Black people by police in states culminated in many marches across states for Black Lives Matter. Trump undoubtedly increased tensions with the demonstrators as ‘thugs’.
