Description
A new edition of the best-known book critiquing the U.S. electoral college
In this third edition of the definitive book on the unique system by which Americans choose a president-and why that system should be changed-George Edwards includes a new chapter focusing on the 2016 election.
"As the U.S. hurtles toward yet another election in which the popular vote loser may become president, Edwards's book is essential reading. It clearly and methodically punctures myths about the Electoral College's benefits."-Richard L. Hasen, author of The Voting Wars
"Supported by both history and data, George Edwards convincingly argues the Electoral College is anti-democratic, anti-equality, and anti-common sense. We should dismantle it, and soon."-Kent Greenfield, author of Corporations Are People Too (And They Should Act Like It)
