If no candidate receives at least 270 votes from the electoral college, the House of Representatives would select the president while the Senate would choose the vice president. Movements for electoral reform have made little progress in implementing a nationwide direct election by popular vote.
Explanation:In the event that no candidate receives at least 270 votes from the electoral college, the presidential election would be decided by the House of Representatives. Each state would cast a single vote to select the president. Meanwhile, the vice president would be chosen by the Senate. This method was used in the original design of the electoral system and has been in place through the first four presidential elections.
In addition, movements for electoral reform to implement a straightforward nationwide direct election by popular vote have gained little traction, despite concerns about candidates winning with a minority of the popular vote. The number of electoral votes granted to each state is determined by its representation in Congress, and a candidate must receive a majority of 270 electoral votes to win the presidency.

During Reconstruction, the passage of the Thirteenth Amendment
Answer:
The Thirteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution ('Amendment XIII') officially abolished and continues to prohibit slavery in the United States of America, and, with limited exceptions (such as those condemned for a crime) prohibited involuntary servitude.
At the time of ratification, slavery remained legal only in Delaware, Kentucky, Missouri, Maryland and New Jersey. In the rest of the United States the slaves had been freed by the state action and the "Emancipation Proclamation" of the federal government.
Abraham Lincoln (who had promulgated the Proclamation) and others were concerned that the Proclamation of Emancipation would be seen as a temporary measure only during the American Civil War, and, therefore, in addition to the liberation of slaves in those states where slavery It was still legal, they supported the Amendment as a means of guaranteeing the permanent abolition of slavery.
