 2. You will have to do a 5-7 slide Powerpoint presentation which explains what happened in the election.  Your aim is to explain the election using what you’ve learned about the Electoral College and the means of electing the president.  (Use the Constitution to help you)  You MUST have a map of the electoral vote included in your presentation.  (A popular vote map may help)
