its divisiveness raises many questions. Does the body ensure representation across
the country? Does the institution benefit some states at the expense of others? How
does the process relate to an incoming president's legitimacy? Are presidential electors
free to use their own judgment? Should the Electoral College exist at all? Much confusion
surrounds this institution, in large part because of how the original Electoral College
differs from its contemporary counterpart, the evolved Electoral College. This book
helps readers to understand the distinction and how we got where we are today. Focusing
on the controversial 2016 election, in which Trump received nearly three million fewer
popular votes than Clinton, Representation and the Electoral College shows how the
Electoral College works to determine election outcomes. In exploring the origin, development,
and practice of the Electoral College, this study also presents the most extensive
analysis of presidential electors to date"--Back cover
