  1. 1. The Race To 270

    This study examines how the U.S. Electoral College shaped campaign strategy in the 2000 presidential contest, analyzing how candidates allocated visits, advertising, and resources across battleground states to reach the 270 electoral votes needed to win; it combines empirical data on polling, media markets, and campaign activity with discussion of strategic decision-making, the geographic distribution of voter preferences, and the broader implications for democratic representation and electoral reform.
