power in the U.S. electoral college  

Définition

  • The president of the United States is elected not by a direct national popular vote, but by an electoral college system in which the popular votes in each separate state are aggregated by adding up electoral votes awarded on a winner-take-all basis to the plurality winner in each state. State electoral votes vary with population and at present range from 3 to 55. [Source: Encyclopedia of Power; U.S. Electoral College, Power In]
