How to Use This Simulator:

This simulator allows you to explore how Ghana's proposed 275-constituency Electoral College system would function in presidential elections. Users can allocate votes by clicking on regions, with candidates needing at least 138 electoral votes (a majority) to win the presidency. Test different electoral scenarios to understand how this system would promote regional equity and inclusive governance compared to the current '50%+1' popular vote system.
