Nov 1, 2024
43:34

Host Joseph Backholm is joined by The Washington Stand’s Ben Johnson for a conversation about the importance of the Electoral College. While not always a hot-button topic, the Electoral College has its moments in the spotlight every four years surrounding the presidential election. But what is the Electoral College? How does it function? Ben shares the inception of this election regulator, why it was created, and the purpose it is still serving. Joseph and Ben discuss what elections would look like if we switched to solely a national popular vote and if there are biblical principles we can lean on to learn how we should structure our elections. With the 2024 presidential election less than a week away, listen now to better understand how we elect the next president of the United States.
