When jealousy gets the best of you, it can cause you to think about things that you haven’t thought of before, therefore they are irrational. They can cause a person to act out, or go to serious lengths in order to seek revenge or prove a point. Jealousy can also cause one to “strut their stuff” or “throw themselves out to the world” to to make them look better than the person achieving more attention. I really hope this helps you!

Answer:

The holiday party at the Smith's house was the most attended in the neighbourhood. It started at 7 o'clock, but we were running late. My mother's famous appetizers take time, and she wanted them to be perfect before she left. She's an amazing cook, but she was also a perfectionist. It wasn't the first time we were late to an event because my mother needed everything to be absolutely flawless.

Explanation:

Needs to be an apostrophe in the word "Smith's" because it is describing something that belongs to somebody. In the word "o'clock", there also needs to be an apostrophe, because it is a contraction of the word "of the clock". "Mother's" requires an apostrophe because it is describing something that belongs to her. (It is her famous appetizer). The next apostrophe is needed in the word "wasn't" because it is a combination of the words "was" and "not"

What exactly is the electoral college

Answers

Answer:

An electoral college is a set of electors who are selected to elect a candidate to particular offices. They often choose a person for a particular office, such as president or prime minister. In the US, the electoral college has 538 electors. The larger the population in a state, the more electoral votes the state has.  Of the current 538 electors, an absolute majority of 270 or more electoral votes is required to elect the president and vice president.

To win a state's electoral votes, you need a majority of votes in the state.

Example: State of California (55 electoral votes)

George Ige: 12,936,846

Bill Meag: 7,372,290

As you can see here, George Ige won the popular vote in the state, so he gets all 55 electoral votes.
