The Argentine constitution of 1853, as revised in 1994, mandates a Separation of powers into executive, legislative, and judicial branches at the national and provincial level. The president and vice-president are directly elected to 4-year terms. Both are limited to two consecutive terms; they are allowed to stand for a third term or more after an interval of at least one term. The president appoints cabinet ministers, and the constitution grants him considerable power as both head of state and head of government, including authority to enact laws by presidential decree under conditions of "urgency and necessity" and the line-item veto.\n\nArgentina's parliament is the bicameral National Congress or Congreso de la Nación, consisting of a Senate (Senado) of 72 seats and a Chamber of Deputies (Cámara de Diputados) of 257 members. Since 2001, senators have been directly elected, with each province, including the Federal Capital, represented by three senators. Senators serve 6-year terms. One-third of the Senate stands for reelection every 2 years via a partial majority system in each district. Members of the Chamber of Deputies are directly elected to 4-year term via a system of proportional representation. Voters elect half the members of the lower house every 2 years.

Typically, states' elections are managed at the LOCAL levels and reported to the Secretary of state.  This is not the case with a few states however, and Illinois happens to be one of these.  Please review the following website link and click to "elections".  You will find a listing of candidates and offices there.  Hope this was helpful.\nbest wishes

From the title, it sounds like the topic assumes the conclusion that the presidential election is an example of true democracy -- unless you put a question mark at the end of the title, in which case the paper would be answering the question of whether the presidential election is an example of true democracy.\n\nIn any event, you might want to try defining some terms as part of your approach.  What is a "democracy"?  Then, what do you mean to add by saying "true" democracy?  (Are you focusing more on technicalities or on spirit?)  We know that American presidential elections involve the weird electoral college procedure, and that it's possible (though very rare) for the winner to win even though another candidate received slightly more votes from regular voters.  Maybe that's a pretty minor thing, though.\n\nAlso, in America, lots of people don't bother voting.  Does that diminish democracy?  They are not prevented from voting, they just choose not to.  So no one ever actually gets elected by a majority of the people, but rather only by a majority of people who decided to vote.  That's people's choice, of course, but does it change the idea of "democracy" at all?

This is a great place to get quick info on Ehrlich.  It's divided alphabetically by the issues, and they have voting records and quotes on each of them.\n\nGood luck.  And for the record, his campaign website is pretty vague on issues and long on personality.  That might not be the best resource for specific information.

ELECTIONS-NICARAGUA:\nThe Sandinistas Are Back\nJosé Adán Silva\n\nMANAGUA, Nov 6 (IPS) - They swore they would return. And today, 16 years after losing their grip on power in national elections, Nicaragua's Sandinistas appear to have made it back, according to the preliminary results from Sunday's elections. \n\nThe leftist Sandinista National Liberation Front's (FSLN) presidential candidate Daniel Ortega took 40 percent of the vote, while the right-wing Eduardo Montealegre of the Nicaraguan Liberal Alliance (ALN) and José Rizo of the Constitutionalist Liberal Party (PLC) garnered 33 and 20 percent, respectively, the Supreme Electoral Court announced after 40 percent of the votes were tallied. \n\nUnder Nicaraguan law, Ortega needs either 40 percent of the vote, or just 35 percent and a five-point lead over his nearest rival, to avoid a run-off. \n\nThe news that Ortega was ahead prompted FSLN supporters to take to the streets to celebrate, with flags, t-shirts and signs bearing Ortega's image, while singing protest songs and election jingles. \n\nInternational election observers sent by the Organisation of American States (OAS), the European Union and the Carter Centre (led by former U.S. president Jimmy Carter) said the elections went smoothly and were clean and transparent. \n\nOnly the mission of observers sent by the White House issued a statement reporting "anomalies". \n\nTwo local non-governmental election monitoring groups, the Institute for the Development of Democracy, and Ethics and Transparency, issued their own parallel counts, based on information gathered by more than 12,000 observers. \n\nAccording to their results, former president Ortega (1985-1990) will score a first-round victory. \n\nEthics and Transparency gave Ortega 38.5 percent of the vote and a nearly 10 percent lead over Montealegre, said the group's president, Pablo Ayón. \n\nThe watchdog group said Montealegre took 29.5 percent, Rizo 24 percent, and Edmundo Jarquín of the Sandinista Renewal Movement, a dissident faction of the FSLN, 7.4 percent -- similar to the 7.5 percent reported by the official tally. \n\n"We understand that some candidates have doubts and say they might have actually performed better, but our results, which no one can object to, will not be affected by the ‘irregularities' that were mentioned," Ayón told IPS. \n\nThe Institute for the Development of Democracy, meanwhile, said its findings showed that Ortega was ahead with 39 percent of the vote, while Montealegre took 29 percent and Rizo 25 percent. \n\n"These are not official results, but we have all of the elements necessary to reliably state that these tendencies will not budge," Mauricio Zuñiga, the head of the Institute, told IPS. "It must be recognised: Ortega won." \n\nSo far, the ALN and PLC candidates have refused to accept either the official or unofficial results, and have not ruled out the possibility of a "surprise" in the final count. \n\nMontealegre is demanding a vote-by-vote recount -- something that is not provided for in Nicaragua's election laws. \n\nThe ALN candidate said that according to his own tally and those of "serious organisations," the outcome points to the need for a second round, and protested that "irregularities" were committed. \n\nRizo also called for a recount, even though the final tally has not even been completed. \n\n"The PLC can't lose like this, the counting of our rural votes has not been completed, and we are not going to accept any winner until the very last vote is counted," said the party's spokesman Leonel Téller. \n\nThe 60-year-old Ortega first seized power in 1979 after the FSLN guerrillas overthrew the brutal Somoza family dictatorship -- which ruled the country for 40 years -- and established a revolutionary junta. \n\nIn 1984, Ortega ran for president and won the elections in the midst of a bloody

I'm afraid I don't know where you can find a side by side comparison for Florida. I'm in a different state and we can get that kind of comparison online at our local newspaper website. So you might check some of your newspaper websites. The following is a great non-partisan website with information on every state candidate.

Try http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Argentina  Type in Argentina in the search and you will find tons of information.\n\nFor example:  Argentina is a country in southern South America. It ranks second in land area in South America, and eighth in the world.\n\nArgentina occupies a continental surface area of 2,791,810 km² (1,078,000 sq mi) between the Andes mountain range in the west and the southern Atlantic Ocean in the east and south. It is bordered by Paraguay and Bolivia in the north, Brazil and Uruguay in the northeast, and Chile in the west and south.

Your public library is a great resource and often overlooked in deference to the internet. Try your local senator/representative's offices. I'm sure that they will be more than happy to help you, whether online or in person (depending on where you live. Remember - every vote counts)! Democrats.com, Republicans.com - look around the net for similar pages. Read up on the history of both parties and of the other parties in the usa - read the History of the parties in England from which the parties in America are descended. Learn how the parties have changed, over the years. Make certain that you join the party of TODAY - not only the ideals of yesterday, but the realities of today mixed with the hopes for tomorrow.

G'day Aimeanna,\n\nThank you for your question.\n\nI have tried Real Clear Politics which is one of the best sites but it doesn't have it.  I can't seem to find one overall site that lists them all. The State Department for each state would probably list them on their websites. The Initiative and Referendum site has a site showing which states have initiatives and referenda and historical information but not current. You might have to check websites in each state to find the information you are after.\n\nRegards
