On Introducing Proportionality in American Presidential Elections: An Historical Analysis, 1828-2008

This system would generate electoral colleges closer to popular will, reduce the risk of electing a mi…

El objetivo de este estudio es conocer cuáles son los patrones que intervienen en la elección de centro escolar y detectar los factores sociodemográficos, económicos y de localización que subyacen tras ellos.
