In order to become an Elector, an individual cannot be a Senator, Representative, or other Person holding an Office of Trust or Profit under the United States. The only other qualification is that the individual must never have engaged in rebellion, insurrection, or have given aid or comfort to the enemies of the United States.
The idea to purge them every few years is because it take us massive amounts of room. You are talking about every 2 years storing a few million ballots per state. Where do you think we put all these ballots
In the United States, citizens' votes for the executive branch primarily occur during presidential elections, held every four years. Voters cast their ballots for electors pledged to their chosen candidate in the Electoral College system. Each state's electors, based on its population, then formally elect the president and vice president. Additionally, citizens may vote for state governors and other executive officials at various levels of government, influencing local and state executive branches.
Such is the name of the people who actually elect the US President. Together, they make up the electoral college which officially elects the President and the vice president. When the people vote for the president every four years , what they are actually doing is electing their choice of electors who are pledged to vote for their party's candidate.
December 15The entire electoral college does not meet together in one place. Electors meet in their respective state capitals (electors for the District of Columbia meet within the District) on the Monday after the second Wednesday in December, at which time they cast their electoral votes on separate ballots for president and vice-president. Each state then forwards the election results to the President of the U.S. Senate, the Archivist of the United States, the state's Secretary of State, and the chief judge of the United States district court where those electors met. A joint session of Congress takes place on January 6 in the calendar year immediately following the meetings of the presidential electors. The electoral votes are officially tabulated at the joint session of Congress and the winner of the election is officially declared.
The number of electors for a state is determined by the population of the state. The number of electoral votes that a state gets is equal to the number of Representatives that a state has in the House of Representatives plus two (the number of Senators each state has in the Senate). The number of electors each state has is adjusted every ten years, following the national census.
According to the U.S. Census. This is the reason why we have a Census every 10 years. Some people are upset that the Census now collects a lot of information for other reasons also, when the Constitution says that we need to have a Census every 10 years to determine the correct number of electors for each state.
