Presidential electors are chosen to represent the interests of their state's voters in the Electoral College. Each state appoints electors based on the outcome of the popular vote during the presidential election. These electors are typically pledged to vote for the candidate who wins their state's majority, reflecting the democratic choice of the electorate. This system ensures that the voices of individual states are represented in the national election process.
of the political parties in the Electoral College for the 2020 U.S. Presidential Election?
The electors are chosen by the voters of each state in the presidential election. When people vote for president, they actually are choosing the electors supporting the candidates named on the ballot.
In truth, the state legislatures have plenary (ultimate) power to appoint the Presidential Electors for the state. In practice, all legislatures delegate the power to select Electors pledged to support various candidates to a ballot referendum in some form or fashion. Most states allow for a winner-take-all, first-past-the-post method of election. However, in the event that the popular election of Presidential Electors is disputed or litigated, all state legislatures reserve the power to appoint their Electors.
It is up to each state to decide how its electors are chosen. Currently, every state and the District of Columbia allow the voters to decide which candidates' electors will be appointed. 49 of the 51 governments use a winner-take-all system, where all of the state's electoral votes go to the Presidential candidate and the Vice Presidential candidate with the most popular votes. Maine and Nebraska each cast two votes for each office according to the state's popular vote, and each remaining electoral vote goes to the candidate with the highest popular vote in each congressional district.
The citizens of the united states - but only indirectly. President and Vice President are chosen by Electors appointed by the States, in such manner as the Legislature of each state shall determine. In practice, since 1876 all the States have chosen their Electors by direct popular vote.
