Question 10 • TX-English III A

Finley is reading a nonfiction text about the modern-day impacts of the electoral college. Which current event is most likely relevant to the text and best for a connection?

Answer
A
a lecture about the origins of the democratic process in ancient Greece
B
a local town-hall meeting where newly elected officials will be sworn into office
C
a debate about the number of votes needed to win the upcoming presidential election
D
a protest at city hall where people are trying to convince officials to expand mail-in voting

Explanation

The Electoral College affects how votes are counted and how a candidate wins a U.S. presidential election. A debate about the number of votes needed to win the upcoming presidential election directly connects to its modern-day impact. The other events concern ancient democracy, local officials, or voting methods rather than the Electoral College’s role in electing a president.
