'The Electoral College system of selecting presidents has confused citizens and intrigued scholars for decades. This edited collection systematically lays out the origins, operations, and options for changing the Electoral College system. Those who favor or oppose proposals to change the system will find ammunition for their arguments as well as judicious analyses of the options for change.' James P. Pfiffner, George Mason University, USA 'Can the Electoral College, seemingly the glaring anomaly in American electoral democracy, be eliminated or reformed? Editor Gary Bugh has assembled a stellar set of articles with findings and analyses that address this question from many angles, adding up to the richest treatment of Electoral College reform we possess.' Bruce Miroff, University at Albany, State University of New York, USA 'The strength of the book is the detailed information on the Electoral College, lobbying of Electors, congressional resolutions proposing a constitutional amendment to replace the College with a direct national popular vote, experience with Elector Districts in Maine and Nebraska, and description of proposals for change.'
