Which of the following statements is true regarding the Electoral College?
A. If no one wins a majority in the Electoral College the winner is decided by the Supreme Court
B
There are a total of 538 electoral votes
C. The territory of Puerto Rico is given 3 electoral votes
D. A state's electoral votes equals their total population divided by 1,000

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

B. There are a total of 538 electoral votes

Explanation:

In order to win the election, a candidate have to win more than 270 votes from that 538 votes.

I'll give you a reason why other options are wrong:

- . If no one wins a majority of the votes, The winner is decided through a recount. Supreme court has no role in this.

- The territory of Puerto Rico has 0 electoral votes,  not 3.

- The number of states' electoral votes is influenced by the amount of people that each state has in house of representatives.

From what two locations did most of the original Carolina colonists come from?

Answers

Answer:

The history of the colonial period of South Carolina focuses on the English colonization that created one of the original Thirteen Colonies. Major settlement began after 1651 as the northern half of the British colony of Carolina attracted frontiersmen from Pennsylvania and Virginia, while the southern parts were populated by wealthy English people who set up large plantations dependent on slave labor, for the cultivation of cotton, rice, and indigo.

The colony was separated into the Province of South Carolina and the Province of North Carolina in 1712. South Carolina's capital city of Charleston became a major port for traffic on the Atlantic Ocean, and South Carolina developed indigo, rice and Sea Island cotton as commodity crop exports, making it one of the most prosperous of the colonies. A strong colonial government fought wars with the local Indians, and with Spanish imperial outposts in Florida, while fending off the threat of pirates. Birth rates were high, food was abundant, and these offset the disease environment of malaria to produce rapid population growth among whites. With the expansion of plantation agriculture, the colony imported numerous African slaves, who comprised a majority of the population by 1708. They were integral to its development.

The colony developed a system of laws and self-government and a growing commitment to Republicanism, which patriots feared was threatened by the British Empire after 1765. At the same time, men with close commercial and political ties to Great Britain tended to be Loyalists when the revolution broke out. South Carolina joined the American Revolution in 1775, but was bitterly divided between Patriots and Loyalists. The British invaded in 1780 and captured most of the state, but were finally driven out.

What are two ways the political parties help the government ?

Answers

Answer:

set goals, and provide leadership.

Answer:

Explanation:Es difícil hablar de democracia en los tiempos que corren sin considerar a los partidos políticos, pues ellos son los principales articuladores y aglutinadores de los intereses sociales. Para precisar su origen podemos distinguir dos acepciones. Una concepción amplia de partido nos dice que éste es cualquier grupo de personas unidas por un mismo interés, y en tal sentido el origen de los partidos se remonta a los comienzos de la sociedad políticamente organizada. En Grecia encontramos grupos integrados para obtener fines políticos, mientras en Roma la historia de los hermanos Graco y la guerra civil entre Mario y Sila son ejemplos de este tipo de ''partidos''.

Si, en cambio, admitimos la expresión partido político en su concepción restringida, que lo define como una agrupación con ánimo de permanencia temporal, que media entre los grupos de la sociedad y el Estado y participa en la lucha por el poder político y en la formación de la voluntad política del pueblo, principalmente a través de los procesos electorales, entonces encontraremos su origen en un pasado más reciente. Se discute, así, silos partidos surgieron en el último tercio del siglo XVIII o en la primera mitad del XIX en Inglaterra y los Estados Unidos de Norteamérica. En esta acepción, por tanto, el origen de los partidos políticos tiene que ver con el perfeccionamiento de los mecanismos de la democracia representativa, principalmente con la legislación parlamentaria o electoral.

Una de las opiniones con mayor aceptación en la teoría afirma que los partidos modernos tuvieron su origen remoto en el siglo XVII, evolucionaron durante el XVIII y se organizan, en el pleno sentido del término, a partir del XIX y, concretamente, después de las sucesivas reformas electorales y parlamentarias iniciadas en Gran Bretaña en 1832. Los partidos modernos, aunque son producto de la peculiar relación de los grupos políticos con el parlamento, fueron condicionados por los procesos de formación de los Estados nacionales y por los de modernización, que ocurrieron en el mundo occidental durante los siglos XVIII y XIX.

Los partidos políticos son el resultado de la quiebra de la sociedad tradicional o feudal y su paso a la sociedad industrial. El mundo burgués, posterior a las revoluciones en Inglaterra y Francia, requería de formas de organización política que sustituyeran a las estamentarias o corporativas por nuevos modos de organización, dependientes de grupos políticos organizados en el parlamento, con reglas claras para la circulación de la clase política. Estas reglas serían de carácter electoral y tendrían un sentido distinto al llamado mandato directo (y en ocasiones vitalicio) de los representantes respecto de sus representados; tal mandato quedó sustituido por el representativo, con el cual el diputado ya no es considerado representante exclusivo de su distrito, sino de toda la nación, y deja de estar obligado a seguir ciegamente el mandato imperativo de sus electores.

Según algunos analistas, la violencia se puede clasificar en tres categorías: violencia po- lítica: que hace referencia a la comisión de actos violentos motivada por un deseo, consciente o inconsciente, de mantener el poder político; violencia económica, referida a la comisión de ac- tos violentos motivada por un deseo, consciente o inconsciente, de obtener ganancias económicas o de mantener el poder económico; y violen- cia social, que tiene que ver con la comisión de actos violentos motivada por un deseo, consciente o inconsciente, de obtener ganancias socia- les, o de obtener o mantener el poder social (Caroline Moser, Marco conceptual para la reducción de la violencia. Banco Mundial, 1999). Con base en la anterior clasificación, se puede decir que es expresión de violencia política A. El narcotráfico. B. El secuestro de cualquier índole. C. El conflicto guerrillero. D. La corrupción.

Answers

La respuesta correcta es D) la corrupción.

Con base en la anterior clasificación, se puede decir que es expresión de violencia política ,la corrupción.

La corrupción es uno de los mayores males en los sistemas de gobierno y en la política en general.

En el caso particular de los países Latinoamericanos, la corrupción ha sido una práctica constante dese hace muchos años en la mayoría de países.

Los gobiernos corruptos se han aprovechado de la ignorancia de las personas y las han oprimido. Eso sin contar la manera en la que los políticos han robado las arcas del país. Este tipo de violencia ha generado mucho resentimiento en la ciudadanía, además de provocar otro tipo de reacciones sociales como la delincuencia.
