Answer 1

I tried Googling this for you and couldn't find the answers either. Sorry.

Answer 2

Sorry I'm not going to answer all those questions but I'll answer some of them.



In the first question Jones wins the popular vote and becomes president because more people voted for him and he has more electoral votes. In the second Q, Gonzales wins the popular vote but Kemper becomes president because Kemper has more electoral votes. Electoral votes determine who becomes president (you need 270 or more). The electoral votes are determined by the popular vote winner of each of the 50 states, and each of the 50 states has a different number of electoral votes (California has the most, small states like Wyoming have only 3).



Criminal conviction case: no the defendant won't be convicted.
