up the rogs before they would the
non-regs.
You say .seniors cannot live three
to a loom. On this I disagree with
you. 1 will, however, admit that
they are entitled to have more
room as they have been up here
three years. I was pointing out
that they were not the only ones
doing so, and that the freshmen
were in a hopeless situation just
as the seniors. I don’t think that
they like it any better than you
do, but they also can do nothing
about it, as neither set can move
into the dorms where rooms are
available. If you will reread my
letter you will find this is true.
I also nevei' claimed that being
u non-reg exempted you from duty.
Once again I would like you to
read it over and show me that.
To Heath, DePue, et al:
I believe that you will find that
your letter has been answered
previously.
To Perkins:
I believe that everything in your
letter bps been answered previous
ly.
I would like to thank you all,
however, for writing your answers
to my letter. Whereas some of
them seem utterly ridiculous to „
me, or at least specialized cases,'
I am glad to get your view on
what I wrote. Next time, I write
a letter I will try to make it so
that it can express but one view,
that which T had intended it to
express.
If I have hurt anyone’s feelings,
or treaded o.n anyone’s pride, I
honestly and sincerely apologize,
as this wos ynv intontion.

How We Elect

A President
On November 4 (the first Tuesday after the first Monday in November),
the citizens of this nation will vote to select the next President and Vice-
President of the United States. This will be the forty-second Presiden
tial election in our country’s history
As provided by the Constitution of the United States, these elections
have been held once every four years, beginning- in 1788. No emergency
has ever blotted out or postponed this fundamental privilege of the
American people; in peace or war, in good times or bad, American citi
zens have selected a President every four years.
In setting up machinery for the selection of a President, the Constitution
provided for electors from each state. Each state has as many electors
as it has total number of representatives in the US Senate and House
of Representatives. All of these electors together are known as the
electoral college. Today the electoral college has 531 votes.
In 1788 the system worked this way: Each state legislature had the
power to choose the allotted number of electors for its state. The men
thus chosen used their own judgment and elected our first President and
Vice-President: George Washington and John Adams.
Today the system works this way: As in 1788, each state has its allot
ted number of electrol votes (see scorecard). Since 1872 all state elect
ors have been chosen by popular vote. The actual machinery by which
voters choose their electors varies from state to state. But the net re
sult is this: The candidate who gets he most votes in a state is prac
tically certain to get all the electoral votes of that state. Not since 1010
have the electoral votes of a state split between two candidates.
On December 15 (the first Monday after the second Wednesday in De
cember) , the official electors of the states will meet in their respective
state capitals to vote for our next President and Vice-President. Con
stitutionally, these electors may vote for anyone whom they choose.
Actually, each elector will already be pledged to a certain course of ac
tion. After the electors have voted, each state will certify the electoral
ballots from that state and send the results to Congress to be counted
January 6. '
Because the electors are pledged to certain candidates, we ordinarily
know the results of the election within a day or two after Election Day
in November. But the election process, as set forth in the Constitution,
is not complete till Congress has counted the votes.
If no Presidential candidate receives a majority of electoral votes, the
members of the House of Representatives—voting by states—select the
President from among the top three candidates. A candidate needs a
majority—25 or more votes—to be so elected.
If no Vice-Presidential candidate receives a majority of electoral votes,
the members of the Senate—voting as individuals—select the Vice-
president from among the top two candidates. A candidate needs a
majority—49 or more votes—to be so elected.
