Question

In a winner-take-all system, a candidate who wins the ____________ vote in a state wins all of the _____________ votes.

a. majority / popular
b. popular / state's electoral
c. popular / official
d. state's electoral / popular '

Answer 1

B. popular/ state's electoral

Answer 2

b. popular / state's electoral

Step-by-step explanation:

The candidate does not have to win the majority of the votes. It just has to have the most numerous amount of votes in that election. When that is the case, even if the candidate wins by less than 50% of the votes, that same candidate still takes it all, which means that he or she wins all of the state's electoral votes.
