The Electoral College

As a part of our study of the U.S. Constitution, we learned about how the President is elected through the Electoral College. I found a cool website, 270towin.com, that let's you look up the Electoral College results of every Presidential election in our nation's history. You might want to look specifically at the elections of 1800, 1824, 1876, and 2000, and see how the actual votes of the people (popular vote) match up to the results of the Electoral College.
