The American Electoral Process
This unit focuses on how the electoral process of the United States works. Though the American electoral process includes hundreds of elected offices, we will focus our attention on the Presidential election process. First we will consider both the formal Constitutional structures including the qualifications for the presidency, the electoral college system and the relevant amendments. Next we will look at the informal traditional processes that have evolved over the years including the two party system, winner take all system, and campaigning.
