Assignment:

Scholars have long debated the merits of the Electoral College. In light of our readings and our own in-depth discussion, would you say at this point that the Electoral College is "good" or "bad" for America? Please outline the origins of the Electoral College and how it functions. In doing so, please also take into account the following sub questions:

Does it function in the way the founding fathers intended (and is that a "good" or "bad" thing)? What role does the U.S. Census play in its function?
What role did it play in the 2000 and 2016 elections where the popular vote outcome did not match the Electoral College outcome?
Last, what, if anything, would you change about the system (if nothing - explain why critics are wrong to seek reforms/changes)?
