Here are some notes I took in civics last year:

Electoral College

Hated the idea of common people to vote for president (WAMPS) An established compromise. Allow them to have a voice.

Why was it created?

People then were uneducated. Was a check to give a state a voice. Maintain regional balance.

Never anticipated a thought of political parties.

Messed up the thought of electoral colleges.

There was other ways people thought we could vote for president.

Made to differ from state and federal differences.

It’s a process, in which we vote for who we want, we tell the electors to vote for that “person”

1787, electoral college electors are chosen by the state legislature

Now, we vote for our electors.

34 states do voting 10 states party decides Remaining states choose them by governments

Qualification, can’t hold office.

Second Wednesday in December they vote as a unit.

Vote separately for president and vice president Winner take all system Not required to vote for the candidates they represents.

Now the Winner take all system is a big one you should definitely talk about: the District of Columbia and 48 states have a winner-takes-all rule for the Electoral College. In these States, whichever candidate receives a majority of the popular vote, or a plurality of the popular vote (less than 50 percent but more than any other candidate), takes all of the state's Electoral votes.

"The “winner-takes-all” electoral system: As background for the non-Americans, the US has an indirect Presidential election system where each state has a number of electoral votes. ... Basically, whichever candidate wins the majority of the popular vote, gets all the electoral college votes"

Which of the following selections is least useful for supporting the claim that states intentionally built unequal school systems? question 1 options: the supreme court ruling in plessy v. ferguson (1896) wrote into law that america had two separate societies: one black and one white. it was very clear by the mid-1900s that southern states had expertly built separate educational systems. these schools, however, were never equal. states with laws keeping schools segregated never gave equal amounts of money to their black and white schools. ten years after brown, fewer than 10 percent of southern public schools had integrated. some areas did not comply at all.
