Answer:
The right answer is B.
Step-by-step explanation:
Though people vote on Election Day or mail their votes on previous dates, they don´t directly choose the next US president. There´s an Electoral College, a body with a proportional representation of states. People vote in their state district; votes are counted in each state and the candidate who wins a majority of votes in the state gets all the votes corresponding to that state in the Electoral College. So, electors that represent their states meet and cast their vote for the winner in their state. To win the Electoral College and be proclaimed president elect, a candidate needs to win 270 votes in the Electoral College.
