Help please! Refer to the Newsela article "PRO/CON: Should We Abolish the Electoral College?"

Part A

Read the text under the heading "PRO: Let's Give All Voters an Equal Voice."

Which claim does the author make as a pro for doing away with the Electoral College?

A. Imbalances in political power last for generations.
B. The majority party in the Senate and that of the president are constitutionally aligned.
C. Presidents focus their lawmaking powers on the small states.
D. The Electoral College potentially throws off the balance established in the legislative branch by the Constitution.

Question 2

Part B

Read this excerpt from the article.

Another balancing effect is the Senate's enormous power beyond shaping legislation. It also shapes the judicial branch and approves key executive branch administration leaders. This gives smaller states a healthy voice in shaping government.

Does this excerpt provide evidence that effectively supports the claim identified in Part A?

1.Yes, because it explains how the Constitution establishes balance in the legislature.
2. Yes, because it describes how the Senate performs an important duty better than the Electoral College does.
3. No, because it explains how the legislative branch creates balance under the Constitution.
4.No, because it does not explain the Senate's role in shaping the executive branch.
