The American Electoral Process
PART B: Which TWO phrases from the text best support the answer to Part A?
A. “We gripe that [the electoral system is] more complicated than the Rubik’s cube; it takes too much time; it’s too expensive; and it is unfair. And, in fact, it is all of the above.” ( Paragraph 1)
B. “And therein lies potential unfairness of the system: because every state, regardless of the size of its population, has two senators, the voters in small states have—per capita—greater electoral power than their big-state counterparts.” ( Paragraph 13)
C. “One consequence of our byzantine electoral system is that it is extremely expensive and time-consuming. In 2012, for example, the presidential candidates spent $2.6 billion and almost two years of intensive work before…Election Day.” ( Paragraph 16)
D. “Roosevelt won 27.4% of the popular vote and 88 electoral votes; Taft got 23% and 8 electoral votes; and Democrat Woodrow Wilson walked away with 41.87% of the vote—and the presidency.” ( Paragraph 17)
E. “As Perot said, ‘Our founders did not know about electricity, the train, telephones, radio, television, … It would be interesting to see what kind of document they'd draft today.’” ( Paragraph 20)
F. “[The system] has helped create history’s most stable, free, and affluent society, and it has had the consent of the governed—the bedrock of democracy.” ( Paragraph 21)
