ELECTORAL COLLEGE

Discussion Activity 5:
 
ELECTORAL COLLEGE (20 points)

You will participate in a class discussion on whether to abolish the Electoral College. During this activity, you will have the opportunity to research and present arguments in favor of maintaining our current system of electing our president 
or
 abolishing the Electoral College altogether. In addition, you will explain what position you support and any changes you would make to the Electoral College, if any.

You may want to begin your research with 
“The Pro’s and Con’s of the Electoral College System”
.

Also, see 
The Library of Congress’ Website
 and search the current Congress for any amendments introduced to abolish the Electoral College. Also, the National Archives has a wealth of information on the Electoral College. You may go to their website at 
The National Archives

You may use course materials, the Internet, or any other references for your research.

After you complete your research, you will go to the Discussion Forum, “The Monocle,” and share your arguments for or against the Electoral College with your classmates. 
Note: 
You only need to present two supporting 
or
 two opposing arguments. Choose a side.
