| 요약 | The Electoral College has always been controversial. A compromise measure from day one, it has been a target of reformers in Congress since the early 1800s. Why has it persisted? Alexander Keyssar catalogs the many serious efforts to change the system, explains why they failed, and surveys the options for achieving a more democratic national vote. |
