The OG 13 didn't want to be over ruled by a few states with most of the population. Small states wanted every state to be equal,Big states wanted the population to count. Electoral college is similar to our house of representatives.
Um, it has worked ever since it was implemented with little to no violence as a consequence which can't be said for most of the world. It's not perfect but it does work.

If the presidential election were decided on popular vote then only a few states would decide and most of the other states would not be represented A lot of demographics define a county's politics So it would not be fair Then a candidate would only campaign in those areas

The evidence now exists to overturn the election back to Trump🗳🔁
This is not a democracy, every vote should be equal and important. What kind of democracy is this?
You're right, the US is technically a "Representative Democracy." People are voted on to make decisions for everyone else. It allows for the people inside the system to determine how that system essentially functions. The biggest problem, as this election shows, is that the general voting population is highly uneducated in regards to economics and political policy. So, pretty much the election comes down to "who's the better bullshit artist."
lol, he believes in democracy >_>
each vote does count it's just by state...
Jaskaran, the same is in India more or less. We chose MP in very Lok sabha seat and it doesn't matters by what margin he won. Also in 2014 BJP only got 31% vote share although they held conclusive majority in parliament

Sure but it’s not as if they’re buying officials or bribing anyone. They’re paying for advertisement space, or donating to campaigns who then pay for advertising. The real problem is dumb people who swallow political ads as truth. Cough cough right wingers
@@0IIIIII In a way it is buying officials. As those who pledge their support for these companies will receive so much more campaign finance than those who actually threaten to do something about them hence why Biden got the nomination over Sanders, In the U.K we atleast have a limit on campaign finances. It's true tho that a lot of the American public are painfully unaware how their own political system works. It's all about who says America is great the most who wins usually.
Sam Hawes
Dude, Biden got the nomination because he won the Primary against Sanders. Had little to do with lobbying. Lobbying also is not illegal or corrupt. Nobody gets rich from taking lobbyist dollars. It all goes to campaigning.
Such irony to say that "it's to prevent unsuitable candidates to be elected." Given time, any systems can be broken and changes are needed as a result. The system in the UK is just as antiquated and awful though.
The US thought that if the voting public was naive enough to elect a strong man, then the Electors would disregard their votes and vote for another, better candidate. However nowadays the Electors never go against the will of the people, and in some states they are bound by law to vote according the voters. The position is now antiquated
@@0IIIIII Thanks for clarifying! The so-called "electors" are basically just of a relic of a by-gone era.
WildwoodCastle House of Lords is basically powerless, it’s nothing like the senate. Be a waste of time to elect them
Surely an 'unsuitable candidate' is a subjective view aswell. Who qualifies as an unsuitable candidate?
@@WildwoodCastle How is it working? The solid blue and red states are not being targeted (no dialogues opened for people in those states). The swing states are getting all the attention and determines for the rest who gets voted in. They managed to voted in 2 Republican presidents in recent years who are woefully inadequate in being the president of the most powerful democratic country in the world (and getting progressively worse). The electors, as explained, don't have any of the function/power of their original creator's intent. Not to mention gerrymandering, government shutdowns and filibuster, among many other systemic problems.
I’m American and i’m confused
From a technical viewpoint the USA does have a democracy .. But if they have to recheck or recount each democratic vote becourse of lawers from Trump ..you start wondering . Maybe they have to leave the USA democracy to the professionals and republicans who studied for it instead of voters .
Just sounds like monarchy with extra steps.
Ñ
Im from UK, just wondering, what is the point of getting people to get out and vote if it is only decided by 538 people representing all the state. Anyway, best of luck U.S. I hope ur E.C. choose ur president wisely.
I'm from India
You’re voting for who your state will vote for. The 538 people have to vote for whoever their state votes for.
@sketchy it's not a law but most of them have agreed to go with whatever the state chose.
For those that don't understand the easy way to explain it is so that states like California and New York who have the largest population but mostly in a couple cities don't get to pick for the rest of the 48 states.
You can get less populated states (like mine Kentucky) to vote and together with the other smaller states add up to equal the two big juggernauts. Some of those states (the 'swing states') don't always vote the same way. (For example California and New York always go Democrat) so the swing states can go either way. That's why they focus on them. It worked for years until gore and bush in 2000
@@lisaosborne8057 so if it's not a law there is nothing stopping them from voting whatever they want.
@@utilizator500 i think i read that 30 of the 50 states have signed on to where they agree with the popular vote if their state. To the best of my knowledge and memory no electoral college has ever gone against the popular vote in their state. Now there is a state Nebraska i believe where they divide the vote up but i don't know how
This makes no sense. Goes over my head a little bit too. Why not just...whoever gets the most votes in general wins?
it is an ancient thing meant at kicking slavery and the civil war down the road. The south slave states had a much smaller population than Maryland and northwards on up through New England.
@@thatguy8869 XXCWT
It's so the votes of every state counts, it'd be extremely unfair to the small states with barely any population, especially when slavery was still around and the Republicans occupied an even number of states as the Democrats, but had fewer people. This system helped abolish slavery since the Republican states still had a say in who the president was.
Because then only states like California and New York would determine the outcome of the election. It's as fair representation as we can get for the moment. Is it perfect, no...but a popularity vote won't produce better results.
@@LSDrumline08 But why not count the individual votes all around the nation? Why this weird states counting as one big vote or whatever thing? I'm so confused
The number of electors is determined by the number of house reps, which is not fixed, plus senators, which is based on the number of states, meaning the smaller the state the more their votes count against larger states.
So like, if it's called democracy
and you get more votes
you win, right?
It goes back to how the United States are exactly that, a group of states who decided to band together. To this day the states have a lot of power. Murder is not a federal crime in the US. It and other capital crimes are state crimes. The state where the murder occurred tries and convicts them. The states choose the President, not the total popular vote, because of the strong individual identities the states have always had. If you don’t like how one state is making laws, or taxing you, you can go live in another state. Thats the difference between the US and something like the UK which was always a kingdom. The United States is a fundamentally a union of strong individual states.
You would think. Hillary Clinton beat Trump by 3 million votes in 2016 but it didn’t matter because of the EC
Without the electoral college, big states like California and New York would end up deciding the election, so the Democrats would just win every time.
@@Henry3Studios yeah but like they also have the most people so inherently that would make the most sense...land doesn’t vote people do
@@shesaballer35 Good point. Land doesn't vote.
American democracy is about as healthy a a man on life support, and then along came Trump to pull out the plug.

A were not a democracy were a republic the founders were adamant that democracy was little more than mob rule B trump has changed nothing about our voting system how did he "pull the plug" obama and bush were equally as bad as trump
I see no possibility of this system ever being abused.

"Works" is a debatable term.

The US voters: How about we directly vote for President?
US Government: No no no, we have to make it complicated and inefficient somehow
This used to be a good system back when it was created. Now it's rather complicated for no reason. But the first past the post system is a bad one in general.

They didn't explain anything about why it is what it is. This was a political ad in disguise.
i am watching this for school what the hell
I think a good compromise between keeping it and going popular vote would be to have every state do it like Nebraska. Not mentioned in this video but the number each state gets is based on their number of representation in Congress. Every state gets two Senators and the House of Representatives is based on population (adjusted every ten years), with every state getting at least one member even if their state's total population is smaller than the average Congressional district (Wyoming for example). So every state gets at least 3 votes in the Electoral College. The way Nebraska does it (and I think Maine does too) is they only give the two votes representing the Senate seats to winner of the state at large. For the votes representing their Congressional Districts, they give the vote based on who had the most votes in each of those districts. That way it would be way harder for someone to win the Electoral College without the popular vote, but at the same time Candidates can't ignore the smaller states. A popular vote would likely change Candidates focus to just trying to get high voter turnout in large states they already expected to do well in, than actually try to win undecided voters, or address the needs of people outside those states.
@@Swerev That is the way Nebraska and I think Maine does it. As the video covers the rest of the states give ALL of their votes to whoever gets the most in their state. Even if the winner only won by a small amount.
IT'S A TRAP!
" It's a Thirst Trap "
@@ChihuahuaChappie IT'S A TRAP!
Wait, so when they say every vote count. It really doesn't?
Every vote does count because they need votes to win the states. Even safe states that reliably vote Democrat or Republican can flip if enough people vote or choose not to vote. This is what happened in 2016 when lots of the uneducated white Americans voted for Trump, in states that were considered Democratic leaning.
The votes count, but some people’s votes count more than others - and it’s NOT the people in smaller states, as some proponents keep claiming. It’s the people who live in a few swing states whose votes count the most.
Trevin Beattie
The small states have a larger proportion of electors than larger states. It’s a tyranny of the poor, rural, uneducated, minority.
I really hate how people vote party lines through and through. Honestly, this way government gets away with murder, literally.
Chuan Liang
Just vote Democrat
🤔✊ It's intriguing how electoral systems aim to prevent unsuitable candidates but are not foolproof. Over time, societal changes call for necessary adaptations to ensure fairness and representativeness. The UK's electoral system has faced criticisms of being outdated and flawed, prompting discussions on reform. Examining different systems globally helps us reflect on the strengths and weaknesses of each. Engaging in constructive dialogue about electoral reform can lead to improvements for democratic processes.

Every election there has to be an explanation, this doesn’t make any sense, why can’t they just rely on popular votes and citizens votes in every state. Simple as that, that will be more fair and peaceful. I don’t understand this.
@Dixie Normus - What??? What does this mean??? Why doesn’t the person with the most votes become president? I am so confused

In Australia, there are representatives from all sides of government in the counting room to ensure a fair result. Why not the same in America?
So is it possible for an election to be split 50/50
Also what is the least amount of states you need you win
The 11 largest states have a total of 270 electoral votes, which is the minimum needed to win.
Going the other way, due to the “winner-take-all” nature of these elections, a candidate can win with just 21.3% of the popular vote by winning the 21 smallest states … assuming 100% voter turnout. That doesn’t take into account first-past-the-post voting or lower voter turnouts; one can win with a much smaller percentage of the popular vote if there is a very low voter turnout in the states that are won and a high turnout in states that were lost.
Finally, if neither candidate gets a majority - such as a 269/269 split or some votes going to a 3rd candidate - then the next president is decided by a vote of the House of Representatives.
Trevin Beattie thanks that’s very interesting and helpful
Trevin Beattie in that case how would that vote work?
People need to remember how big and diverse this country is. My views in NJ are way different than those in say California. We need the Electoral College to keep everything balanced. Unfortunately the Electoral College has made us a two party system which is terrible. Every once in a while we get a great candidate who's voice is barely heard.

Should've added a bit on gerrymandering for a fuller picture of the US electoral system.
Gerrymandering doesn't apply for electoral votes, because the vote of each district is not considered. It's the whole state instead.

Alligator god forbid immigration having an impact on the politics of a country founded on immigration
Alligator the America you see today was built on the backs of slaves and poor immigrants, not the original colonial settlers. But once the immigrants stop being white Europeans, only then do you believe it’s a problem
Alligator wrong my friend, America is founded for anyone who is American, whether they are of European , African, Native, Asian or Hispanic descent. Those descended from native Americans and slaves are not to be merely “respected”, they have as much claim to America as anyone else, if not more. A hardline approach to immigration is a complete u-turn on the thing that made America what it is today

Same, I feel like voting is more complicated then it has to be xD
I will explain it to you the way I know. Basically, each state has a number of electors based on population. The popular vote in each state is what the electors vote for, with a total of 538 electors and 270 votes required to win. Maine and Nebraska are the only two states that can vote for different candidates despite popular vote.
The electoral college has to go. It is a two hundred year old system that doesn't make sense anymore. Your vote technically doesn't count if you are a Republican in California, or a Democrat in Alabama. This also another reason why the voter turnout in the Presidential election is usually low.
Also, electors just don't make sense and some of them vote faithless for people that weren't even on the ballot. In 2016, Kasich (who was eliminated in the Republican primary) won an electoral vote, and so did Bernie Sanders. Ron Paul, who didn't even run in 2016 got an electoral vote and so did Colin Powell, Secretary of State under President George W. Bush. Sec. Powell has never run for President but he still got an electoral vote. The electoral college has to go.
This will be the Last Election with the Electoral system: as the Anarchy arriving from this failure will create change. Sadly too late as the irreversible damage will be done.
It’s a fairer system than what you want to replace it with.
Do you disagree with ballot harvesting?
There’s never been a BBC video on that.
That’s undemocratic.
@Oscar Lee With all due respect but our elections work very differently than that of the United Kingdom. We elect the President and Congress separately, while you have a parliamentary system in which MPs are elected altogether and then the leader of the party with the highest number of MPs becomes Prime Minister.
@@davidrobertsemail Actually it's not. I respect your view but ballot harvesting can also rig the Electoral college. Plus, with the electoral college candidates ignore safe states and compete only in battleground states. That is unfair for the rest of the people because they don't get to meet with the candidates that will represent them. The campaigning process will also become very different and politicians won't ignore safe states.
It's still better as it's between two parties, than like in my country where multiple parties compete each other and even some rival parties end up doing coalition just for power, undermining people's choice .
that's not undermining people's choice. that's real democracy, people gave some parties their vote, the parties negotiate and create coalitions... it's still closer to the peoples' choice than the US system.
So there's no point voting
This old system, existing now in modern times defeat the very purpose for which it was created.

According to Alexander Hamilton, “A small number of persons, selected by their fellow-citizens from the general mass, will be most likely to possess the information and discernment requisite to such complicated [tasks].” (Federalist No 68) Of course since the advent of the telegraph everyone these days has access to the information they need to choose who they want for president … although I think many people just don’t pay enough attention to it.

david marjason not true, we’ll have to find out. No one cares about your opinions.
I just don’t understand why if the state has a 50/50 vote, everyone still picks one side. Why would you vote in that state then ?
TDS running rampant in these comments
There is nothing important about the president of the US for he is just a public servant. The LORD God is the only One who reigns over all things. When will this stupid world end? I am so sick and tired of all the boring repetitions. Until when will this be? Until when?
Until the end of times
When you die. Cus when you die you can't do, or hear anything. So technically its over when you die. Want me to help?
Sir can I translate and use this video to educate Koreans?
Yes.
So what does the publics vote do to the collage electors
Aipac choose the winner. End the BBC licence fee.
Dear any Americans who watch this video,
How in gods name does Trump still have any support?
Sincerely, the rest of the world.
@Covert Puppytwo
Why is Biden worse?
Biden didn't make anti-vaxxer tweets, Biden is not a climate change denier, Biden doesn't support religion as much as Trump.
Covert Puppytwo I have to agree
@Covert Puppytwo
I also have questions about Biden's mental fitness. That's one of the reasons why I didn't support him in the primary.
BUT we cannot be sure if he has Alzheimer's disease. No one knows and I don't think that he will do a CT, an MRI, a PET or SPECT.
At least Biden and his vice president don't spread misinformation.
@Covert Puppytwo
I know about this.
These are NOT scientific statements and there is no way to prove that this information (that he gave us) is false or inaccurate.
Misinformation is "false or inaccurate information, especially that which is deliberately intended to deceive."
@Covert Puppytwo
If he can't do the job his vice president will do it.
I am trying to say that Biden will do nothing, he is in a vegetative state.
Trump on the other hand...
Trump will do harm.
See the Paris agreement.
How the US election works? As an American I can tell our friends in the UK that it doesn't. Our electoral college has gone way past its expiration date.
If you don’t like the USA’s electoral system, then move. My sister in-law is British, and she officially became a US citizen last year. She hated how things were ran there. She loves the US Constitution, and the way our leaders are elected, and she’s very happy. If you prefer another electoral system, and it would make you happy, you should go participate in it.
And I promise I’m not trying to be rude. I honestly think we get to attached to land here, and trying to make our land what we want. Sometimes it’s better to just move to somewhere that fits our life.
All of this goes over my head....I just wanna potentially vote but I have no clue about any of it. Who candidates are etc. Or how anything works
Just go straight ticket R or D depending on who you want, also what state are you in?
If you have no clue about the voting system and the candidates, what's your point in voting in the first place?
I love joe biden
Jase Brown they won’t take their guns away (I hate your freaking lies no matter what).
