Every four years, here in the US, voters go to the polls to select who they want to be president. But what if we told you that when you voted, you were not voting for the presidential candidate but an often unknown elector who will vote for you.
On this week's episode, we will answer:
- Who are these electors?
- Why did the founding fathers choose this system?
- And does my vote count? (Spoiler...It does!)
