The state of Mississippi has 6 electoral votes. If in the next presidential election the
Democratic candidate receives 500,000 popular votes and the Republican candidate receives 350,000 poplar votes , how will the electoral votes be divided? Why?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: All 6 will go to the Democratic candidate

Explanation:

Even though there is no Constitutional basis, states usually give all their electoral votes to the candidate with the majority vote in their state. Mississippi is one of those states.

So long as a candidate receives the majority of the votes, they will get all 6 of Mississippi electoral votes. For instance, Senator McCain won 724,597 votes to Obama's 554,662 in 2008 and thus got all 6 electoral votes.

The Democratic candidate here will therefore receive all 6 electoral votes.

City of Some town

Some town, CO 55555

Dear Mr. Richards:

I was interested to read City of Sometown’s posting on Monster for an entry-level police officer. For as long as I can remember I’ve wanted to pursue a career in law enforcement, and the opportunity to serve and protect within my hometown community is my dream job.

Here’s why I am a strong candidate for this position:

Training & Credentials: After graduating top of my class to earn my Peace Officer Standards and Training (POST) certification, I pursued an AAS in law enforcement from XYZ Community College. Last month I earned my degree with honors, along with CPR and first aid certifications. As a result of this training, I offer a solid foundation in police fundamentals.

Community-Minded: As a native of Some town, I am deeply committed to the welfare of the community. After graduating from Some town High School, I stayed active in my local church and Kiwanis Club. These close community ties will assist in fostering positive relationships and furthering police-community goodwill.

Sincerely,

Brenda Ames

a. Walt decides to shoot his Yolanda, whom he blames for all his troubles. As he is driving to her home to carry out the murder, he accidentally hits a jogger who darted out into the road from behind a tree. Stopping immediately, Walt rushes to help the jogger, who is already dead. Assume that Walt was driving at a safe speed and that the collision with the jogger was unavoidable. determine who can be charged with the crime of homicide and the degree of homicide for which he or she should be charged.

Answers

Answer:

There is no crime of homicide. Walt had no motive for killing the jogger and this was clearly an accident. Not even reckless driving. Walt stops to help. That's all we know. Did he then leave the scene? That would be a crime. Based on what we're told, there is no homicide. No intent to kill the jogger.

Explanation:

Answer:

Yes, it is a homicide.  A homicide is defined as "the killing a person by another person".  Walt killed the jogger when he struck the jogger with his moving car.  Walt may face anything from no charges (if the jogger did not have the right of way such as jaywalking) to involuntary manslaughter (Walt did not intend to strike and kill the jogger but was at fault).


HC) Do you think federal judges should be appointed for life? Why or why not?

Answers

I do think they should be appointed for life.I say this because by guaranteeing that they are there for life,they will not have any bias that would stem for losing their job.I think when their salary and jobs are guaranteed the judges would then keep the decision fair.
