Is it Time to Pull the Plug? A Historical Analysis of the Electoral College from 1800 to Present

The role of the electoral college in the selection of the American President has long been a target of criticism, more so than ever following the 2016 election. Join Hope College professor, Dr. David Ryden for this presentation that will tell the stories of those elections in American history where the electoral college engendered special controversy or conflict in choosing the ultimate winner. We will then consider the arguments around the institution as it operates in the modern context.
