The Electoral System of the USA // The 2012 Presidential ElectionValentinSchraub
Â
I have created this presentation for an English exam in my last year at the Immanuel Kant high school in Leinfelden, Germany. It is about the 2012 presidential election in the United States and its electoral system. I got 14 out of 15 credits for this presentation and after it I conducted a spontaneous survey among the 15 students on who they would vote for if they were Americans. 13 out of 15 voted for Barack Obama, the remaining two for Mitt Romney.
The document discusses the right to vote in the United States. It provides background on the 26th Amendment, which lowered the voting age from 21 to 18. The document notes voter turnout statistics showing lower rates among young adults. It outlines how to register to vote in Virginia through various methods like online, by mail, or at the DMV. The document also discusses absentee voting and reasons why voting is important, such as it being a civic duty. It encourages readers, especially young people and college students, to register and vote in elections.
The document summarizes how the US electoral college system works to elect the President. It explains that each state gets a minimum of 3 electoral votes based on Congressional representation. Candidates need 270 electoral votes to win. While citizens vote for electors, electors typically vote for the candidate who won the state's popular vote. It addresses concerns about smaller states' voices and the system's fairness. The document also outlines US citizen voting requirements and some state-specific voting rules and deadlines.
This document provides guidance on voter targeting for political campaigns. It discusses identifying three types of voters - supporters, opponents, and undecideds - and determining which to target based on the percentages of each. The primary targets are undecided voters who are most persuadable and soft supporters of the opposing candidate. Various methods are described for identifying supporters through phone calls, door-to-door canvassing, and predictive modeling using demographics and past voting behavior. The goal is to secure one's base, target persuadable voters for persuasion efforts, and target marginal supporters for get-out-the-vote activities to reach the threshold for victory.
The document discusses the US electoral process and voting system. It covers topics like voter registration requirements, primary and general elections, the role of the electoral college, campaign financing, and criticisms of the current system. It provides details on how elections work at the federal, state, and local level in a concise yet comprehensive manner.
This document outlines a campaign called "My Vote My Right" aimed at educating youth voters in India. The campaign objectives are to create awareness about voting, develop community leaders who promote voting, and change perceptions so that voting is seen as a cool duty. The campaign will use both online and offline strategies, with a focus on online as most youth are on social networks like Facebook. Online, the campaign will create a website and social media accounts to engage youth and provide educational content. Offline, it will hold workshops and competitions in colleges to supplement the online outreach.
