polarization, without being impractical and nearly impossible to implement. Unlike a traditional close primary election, “top-two” primaries allow every eligible voter to participate in primary elections, regardless of their party affiliation. Democrats, Republicans, Independents, and even Libertarians, can vote on a preferred candidate they believe should proceed to a general election. However, the “top two” primary differs from an open one since voters do not have to choose which party’s primary

skeptic, Adam J. Breinsky, argues that convenience voting has “perverse consequences on election reform” and that encouraging political engagement is more valuable than pursuing institutional changes. Although convenience voting offers flexibility and comfort, it is imperative not to overlook what Election Day is supposed to be: a communal event. Therefore, we must work towards a hybrid system where voting on Election Day is made more convenient. Forms of convenience voting serve their purpose: making

How To Win An Election Analysis In 64 B.C. Quintus Tullius Cicero wrote a letter of advice to his brother Marcus Tullius Cicero who was running for counsel. Marcus already possessed many of the gifts that many successful politicians have, especially his gift as the best orator in all of Rome.

FACTORS AFFECTING VOTER TURNOUT IN CEBU CITY (2013 LOCAL ELECTION) I. Introduction Rationale of the study Every time there is an election, whether in the local or national levels, a basic question always arises: How many registered voters will flock to their respective precincts to exercise their right to suffrage? This question implies knowing the percentage of voters who actually showed up in the polls or what is commonly termed as “voters turn-out.” Understandably, such knowledge is important

to vote no one tells them anything. People can encourage them to vote, but other than that no one can make them. In the 2016 election only 57.9% of eligible voters voted.

petitions just to be able to be listed on the ballot. The state and federal governments, that make the rules for governing elections, are composed of elected Democratic and Republican officials, that are strongly incentive to protect the existing duopoly and they also tend to face financial difficulties because a party must have at least 5 percent of the vote in previous elections to qualify for federal funds.

political parties running for office enjoy the process behind the Electoral College. The political parties influence the American citizens to vote for their candidate as the next President in order to benefit from the candidate's power. During the election, candidates use strategic tactics to produce more votes. Candidates tend to express what the people want to hear their speeches. For everyone else, the Electoral College is a stressful and complicated process.

Each state, however, does not obtain an unlimited amount of electors to choose
