The US presidential election is actually quite interesting. First of all, the United States uses the Electoral College. There are 50 states in the country, with a total of 538 electors, and the number is divided according to the population of each state. On the day of the election, the people of each state will vote for the electors they support.

Then, these electors will vote for the presidential candidate within the specified time. Whoever can get more than 270 votes is basically a sure thing. However, there is also a situation where, in the general election in the state, even if one candidate has only a few more votes than the other, such as 0.5%, whoever has more votes will take all the electoral votes in the state, which is the so-called "winner takes all".

​Let's talk about the tasks of the electors. They can only choose one from the two main candidates, and other candidates cannot be selected no matter how good they are. This Electoral College system is actually to avoid the confusion that may be caused by direct voting by all people.

​In this way, they say one person one vote, but in fact they still take the Electoral College route.
