How do we Elect a President?

My 11 yr old, in studying for a social studies exam, wanted to know more about the process. They covered the whole thing in school, but he started asking questions about popular and elector voting - because he wanted to know more, not because that part was on the test. How cool is he?

Anyway, we did some research, but I just came across a really good video that explains the whole way things are calculated, and it does it nice and clearly.

  1. Awesome. I’m so glad you found this! I love Commoncraft and have used them before, but did not know they had this. Thanks!

  2. Man…if I could have had this when I was in school I might have actually passed this part of the test.
