US election system compared to UK system

The political system of the United States is deemed the most unique in the world. Unlike
the United Kingdom, a monarch headed by a ceremonial queen without real power and the prime
minister who is the head of the government, the United States is a republic governed by a
president. Similar to the U.K. parliament, the U.S. Congress is bicameral; the House of
Representatives and the Senate. In the U.S., there are public elections for both houses and
another third separate election to elect the president. Further, the U.S. political system has the
president as the head of both the government and the Senate. Contrary, in the U.K., the Monarch
and the prime minister play these roles separately.
The House of Representatives in the U.S. Congress represents the people's interests from
every local voting area. Each state is divided into districts; the number of districts in each state is
based on the population. The state with the highest population has a higher number of districts,
and each district elects one representative. The election of members of the House of
Representatives happens every 2-years. The candidates with highest number of votes in every
district secure a seat in the Congress. Therefore, the party with the majority seats gets control of
the house. The House of the Lords in the U.K. parliament, like the Senate in the U.S. Congress,
is also known as the Upper house. The Senators scrutinizes and questions the suggestions from
the president and Representatives prior to voting to determine whether they should become law.
Senators serve a 6-year term, and every two years third of the Senate seeks re-election. Each
state produces two senators regardless of population.
In conclusion, Presidential elections in the U.S. happens after every four years. The two
main parties (Democrats and the republicans) choose the president and running mate. Every presidential candidate and their respective political party carry out intense campaigns throughout
the country. However, the Americans do not vote directly for their leader; instead, the Electoral
College system consisting of electors is used to choose the president. Each state sends electors to
Electoral College equal to its Senators and Representatives. The electors votes in Electoral
College usually represent the interest of the public vote. The candidate who receives the most
electoral votes becomes the president-elect.
