Excerpt from Michigan Law Journal, 1892, Vol. 1 The writer of the article thereupon concludes: When, therefore, the last legislature of Michigan passed a law providing for the choice of electors by districts it was exercising an undoubted right, given it by the Constitution.

The power of a State to appoint presidential electors is a delegated power, and delegated only. It is not among the natural or inherent rights of States.

It must be exercised by the States, as such, as trustees of the power. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books. Find more at ...
