- W61425400 abstract "FOR STUDENTS OF HISTORY, the acrimonious and contentious 1876 presidential canvass came to mind during the 2000 election imbroglio. Democrat Samuel J. Tilden won the popular vote, but to the dismay of outraged Democrats, an electoral commission of eight Republicans and seven Democrats decided along strict party lines to give twenty disputed electoral votes to the Republican Rutherford B. Hayes, and thus the presidency. The hotly contested 2000 presidential campaign produced similar howls of protest when Republican George W. Bush won the election with a controversial majority in the Electoral College even though his Democratic challenger Al Gore received approximately 500,000 more popular votes. Scholars, pundits, editors, politicians, and others called for the abolition or reform of this ridiculous setup, which thwarts the will of the majority, distorts presidential campaigning and has the potential to produce a true constitutional crisis.' The current demand for change has deep historical roots dating back to 1796 when William Smith, Federalist of South Carolina, urged a revision of the electoral system because it had been discovered that great inconveniences might arise.2 Since that time, hundreds of proposals have emerged and yet, with the exception of the adoption of the Twelfth Amendment in 1804, all have failed.3 It is likely that present efforts will meet the same fate. Why? The attempt to answer this question offers American History instructors" @default.
