The U.S Election: learn how your state's voting laws may have changed

This book explores the constitutional basis and concept for this essential position and then goes through the nomination process of caucuses and primaries, culminating with the Electoral College method that completes the cycle every four years. The direct primary ranks as one of the most significant and distinctive political reforms of the Progressive era in American history. In this book, McDonald presents the most extensive treatment available on the problem and incorporates fresh data on election outcomes, candidate histories, incumbent performance and behavior, media endorsements, and voters' preferences. They begin by examining whether primary elections have met the purposes set by progressive reformers when they were initially established over a century ago. They then evaluate the key roles these elections have played in the US electoral systems, such as injecting electoral competition into the regions that are dominated by one of the two major parties, helping select relatively qualified candidates for office, and, in some cases, holding incumbents accountable for their performance. This book is extremely remarkable and will open your eyes to the rigors of the present election principles in the United States as it elucidates in depth; the US election and how the state's voting rules may have altered.
