This phrase means "all or nothing". It refers to the practice of allotting all of a states electoral votes or delegates. in the case of primaries, to the one candidate who receives the most popular vote . All but two US states use this winner take all system in the presidential election.
The alternative would be to split the votes proportionally in some way to reflect the popular vote. For example if a state uses winner take all and has 21. electoral votes, a candidate who wins the state by just one vote gets all 20 of the state's electoral votes. If the state did not use winner take all, it might give 11 votes to the winner and 10 votes to the other candidate.
It Means that the Electoral College approves the vote
If you mean the popular vote the answer of no.
Honestly,it seems there is no reason to vote for president,since we are not.They should just say we are voting for somewon to vote for us.i mean,if im wrong somewon please correct me.
If you mean "democracy" as in giving power to the people to elect their government officials, yes it is: it has almost the same political system of the United States, with some minor differences such as the Electoral College, which doesn't exist in Mexico.
A person wins a Presidential election in America slightly different from what most people think. Most people would tell you that the citizens vote and all votes are accounted for and whichever candidate receives the most votes is the President. However, the President is in fact selected by the electoral college. This is an uncommon occurrence but in the event that the popular vote (the citizens vote) differs from the electoral college, then the President is selected by the electoral college. So in reality citizens votes don't mean anything.
Electoral is a political term and has no special meaning in science.
None. The president of the U.S. (I presume that is the election you mean) is elected by the electoral college, period. If they can't reach a majority, it is decided by congress. See the 12th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution.
The president of the United States is not elected by direct popular vote, but rather by the electoral college. A mere 538 people, chosen by voters in all the states are the ones who actually elect the president. The candidate with the majority of electoral votes wins the presidency.
Filters of Consent has to do with the electoral college. Filters of consent just means that someone or something has to go through many steps and different groups to be passed, or approved.
I assume you mean "state". Each state has a minimum of three electoral votes.
The popular vote is when the people vote for the president. in actuallity the people don't elect the president. the electorial college do. they win states with the popular vote then the delegates from those states vote for the candidate their state chooses.
