Hello Advocates and welcome to your new Blog! With this blog, we will be able to stay in contact with each other even though we are not face to face.
2 weeks from today we will all vote in one of the most historical elections. No matter who you vote for, there will be changes and we have to make sure we are prepared for the new administration and possibly a new Congress. New Jersey will be getting two new Congressional members after this election and we would like to get to know them as soon as possible.
Axel has created a homework assignment for all of you to do during the evening of the election.
A. How many electoral college votes do New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and Connecticut have?
B. What was the Senate breakdown prior to the election and after? What does the new breakdown mean? (Try to find exact numbers that show how many Republicans the Senate had/have and how many the Democrats had/have)
C. What is the breakdown of the House of Representatives? What is it after the election? What does it mean?
D. What party is in control of the House, Senate, and White House after the election? What impact will this have?
E. What important ballot initiatives were on the ballot this year?
