Why the Electoral College is Bad for America New Haven, CT, Yale University Press. 2004, First Edition, First Printing. (ISBN: 0300100604) Hard Cover with dust jacket, 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. Collectible, xvii, 198 pp. bib. notes, index; 24 cm. Tight, clean copy. Fine DJ. "A critique of arguments in favor of the electoral college and a persuasive argument for direct election of the president (tagline for catalogue). Americans currently choose their president through the electoral college, an extraordinarily complex mechanism that may elect a candidate who does not receive the most votes. In this provocative book, George Edwards III argues that--contrary to what supporters of the electoral college claim--there is no real justification for a system that might violate majority rule. Drawing on systematic data, Edwards finds that the electoral college does not protect the interests of small states or racial minorities, does not provide presidents with effective coalitions for governing, and does little to protect the American polity from the alleged harms of direct election of the president. In fact, the electoral college distorts the presidential campaign so that candidates ignore most small states and some large ones and pay little attention to minorities, and it encourages third parties to run presidential candidates and discourages party competition in many states. Edwards demonstrates effectively that direct election of the president without a runoff maximizes political equality and eliminates the distortions in the political system caused by the electoral college. / George C. Edwards III is Distinguished Professor of Political Science at Texas A&M University. He is editor of Presidential Studies Quarterly and holds the George and Julia Blucher Jordan Chair in Presidential Studies in the Bush School. His books, include At the Margins: Presidential Leadership of Congress and On Deaf Ears: The Limits of the Bully Pulpit, both published by Yale University Press. Neal R. Peirce, a prominent Washington journalist, writes a national column on state and local government themes syndicated by the Washington Post Writers Group." - Publisher. Fine/Fine.
