What is the Electoral College?

The Electoral College 

According to the National Archives and Records Administration of the United States  the Electoral College " is a process, not a place. The founding fathers established it in the Constitution as a compromise between election of the President by a vote in Congress and election of the President by a popular vote of qualified citizens."   

Although it is not a place, the Electoral College does have a very informative website.    

Barberton Public Library has a great selection of resources available so that you can learn more about this fascinating aspect of our political system.
