The Federalist Papers: resumen de Federalist No. 61
Federalist No. 61 de 85 · 6 min para leer el ensayo
In Federalist No. 61, Hamilton argues that requiring elections within voters’ counties adds little protection, since New York’s own constitution permits inconvenient polling locations. He also defends congressional control as a means of coordinating election dates, while explaining why practical choices belong to legislative discretion rather than fixed constitutional rules.
