About this ebook
The election for the American president garners a global interest but many feel bored to go through turbid and turgid details. The American presidential race is a year-long marathon. The book will take a look at the would-be 45th President of America.
The first time in 227 years of American history, a woman might be at the helm of the White House. An unthinkable political rise of A Speed Car Named Trump from nowhere and the prospects of victory for Clinton as the First Woman President in the Oval Office are under a telescopic microscope.
It’s a cut and dried, yawning-free, without batting an eyelid story of the most exciting, mesmerizing and terrifying election. Former House Speaker, Newt Gingrich says; “This is probably the worst presidential election in the last 100 years.”

WHITE HOUSE 101
A natural born, US citizen of at least 35 years old and a resident for 14 years in the USA can run for the Oval Office. Since 1933, every president has been a governor, senator or five-star army general. The Republican or GOP and the Democratic parties nominate one person to represent in the presidential election, which is held after every 4 years. In an election year, the nomination process of both parties begins in February with a series of Primaries and Caucuses in every state where candidates run for the nomination from each party. For candidates, Super Tuesday: the 1st of March, is a do or die time, on which many primaries and caucuses are held, in 13 states and one territory. A candidate gathers a number of Delegates, who are party members with voting powers for the party conventions in July: where presidential nominees are formally confirmed. The Delegates pledge their support at the Convention. Hillary Clinton got 2,220 Democratic Delegates, while 2,382 were needed to win the Democratic nomination. Donald Trump earned the support of 1,447 Republican Delegates, whereas 1,237 were required to earn the Republican nomination. The Democrat Hillary Clinton and the Republican Donald Trump were the clear winners from both parties in 2016 and they were officially nominated at their party’s conventions in July. The presidential candidates also pick vice-presidents. Clinton chose Senator, Tim Kaine of Virginia and Trump opted for Indiana Governor, Mike Pence. The votes in the Presidential Election are cast on Tuesday, 8 November. The candidate with the most votes in each state becomes the President. In a presidential election, the Popular Vote means an aggregate of all voters from 50 states. But, the American President is elected by an institution called the Electoral College, a group of people who choose the winner, with 538 votes. The number 538 is the sum of the America’s 435 Representatives, 100 Senators and 3 electors given to the District of Columbia. It takes 270, or more Electoral College votes to win the election for a president. In every state except Nebraska and Maine, the winner takes all. In terms of Electoral Vote, all 50 states are not equal: the number of electoral votes given to each state reflects the sum of the representatives and senators it sends to Congress: these Electors are based on their population, in the most recent census. The President of America is inaugurated, on 20th January, following the election. In January 2017, America will have a new president, at the White House, for the next 4 years.
ELECTORAL ARITHMETIC
Electoral votes for the Presidential Election are allocated on the basis of Census. The allocations below are based on the 2010 Census. These votes are effective for the 2012, 2016, and 2020 presidential elections. It is quite possible that a candidate wins the Popular Vote and yet loses the presidential election by Electoral Votes. In the year 2000, the Republican George W. Bush, won 271 electoral votes, against the Democratic Al Gore’s 266. Al Gore won popular votes, by a margin of 540,000, more votes than Bush, but Bush became the President of America, by winning the Electoral College votes. These are the Electoral Votes for the States and District of Columbia, unconventionally categorized in a boxing weight class for clarity.
