Dr. Miller will present a 30 minute talk followed by questions and discussion on the electoral college, how it works, and how the national popular vote compact might alter presidential elections.
Dr. Miller will address the historical purpose of the Electoral College at the time of the writing of the US Constitution and what has changed since then, ways to reform the Electoral College to obtain direct election of the presidency, and some comparisons to other countries that have abolished their Electoral Colleges and the impact this had on their elections and politics.
The LWV of the Bozeman Area and the Bozeman Public Library are hosting Dr. Peter Miller. He will present a talk about the Electoral College on Thursday, August 23 at noon in the Bozeman Public Library large community room.
