Do the events surrounding the election of 2000 justify changes to the electoral college? why or why not? explain in a well-written paragraph with at least three reasons.

Yes, in the elections of 2000 there were some changes in the Electoral College as Gore never won in 2000. He has got only 48% of popular vote whereas Clinton has failed majority of votes in 1992.

Further Explanation:

The 48% ofpopular vote won by Gore was hardly considered as a victory because he had lost many prominent state which implicitly meant that he was not an efficient candidate to become a president. In fact Clinton too failed majority votes in 1992 but he had won many states and thus his elections were considered appropriate. Electoral College play an important role. The root idea of the electoral college is that presidential candidate should not merely have to get a simple majority in states but he/she should be the representative of plurality of 50 States. Electoral College thus protects many interests, as otherwise majority will win and will then dominate the policy formulation which is not the essence of true United States.

The second reason is that electoral college prevents smaller states from becoming irrelevant. Campaigning of President should be in all 50 States including Ohio.

The third reason is that the smaller states have been given the admittance to the process of democracy. Unknown Dictatorship can even break the country. The major policies relevant to the winning candidates are Labour policies, farmers policies, business policies.
