How is the President of the U.S. Chosen? How Are the Polls Looking? (Why is it so important for Republicans to vote?)

(By Molina and Maqueda) Why is it so crucial for Republicans that their voters participate in various forms of early voting? While the popular vote is part of the electoral process, the final outcome of the presidential elections in the United States largely depends on the votes from the Electoral College. In the presidential elections on November 5th, the outcome between Kamala Harris and Donald Trump will hinge on a few key states, but fundamentally on whether Republicans show up to vote—whether through early voting, mail-in ballots, or in-person on Election Day. Many times, due to various reasons, they may not be able to vote on the day itself; hence, it’s vital to do so beforehand if possible. Historically, Democrats have been more strategic and tend to vote early. Despite approximately 240 million Americans expected to cast their ballots, the election outcome will be decided by: a) whether Republicans unite and organize to vote massively on Election Day or do so through various means of early voting beforehand, or b) whether the seven states that determine the election vote for Trump. This phenomenon is due to the Electoral College system, which consists of 538 electors who determine the winner based on the votes in each state.

Argentinian Migrants in the USA: Which Series or Film Best Reflects the Current Issues in Your Country? (The Spectacular Analogy That Emerged from Recent Research)

(Cocreated by Taylor - Canada, Maqueda - USA, Maurizio - ARG, Molina - Venezuela  and Ortega - Cuba). An article that the 44 million Argentinians and all Anglophone Latinos should read and reread. Would the response be similar if we asked Colombians or Venezuelans? Certainly not. However, what emerges from recent consultations with nearly 500 Argentine migrants in the USA is profoundly intriguing. In the vast and complex narrative of Argentine politics—a nation that literally ranked among the highest in social and cultural development and GDP between 1880 and 1930—there looms a disturbing analogy with the series The Good Place (USA), where heaven is portrayed as an ideal environment, brimming with possibilities and virtues, yet fundamentally manipulated by very negative forces that distort its essence.
