Description

Why did the framers of the Constitution create such a complicated system for electing the President? What other alternatives did they consider? Professor Brunsman will explore these and other questions about what might be America’s most unloved political institution. An expert on American political history, he will also discuss the prospects for reforming the Electoral College. Pay close attention because attendees will get a chance to vote to keep the Electoral College or replace it with a different method for electing the President.
