Election Process
Each branch of government has its own unique election process. I am going to tell you the unique electing processes.
Executive Branch:
Every 4 years both the Republican and Democratic parties select a candidate to run for President. The candidate then chooses a Vice President to run with him on a "ticket." The person that becomes President is determined by the votes of the Electoral College. Each state has a certain number of electoral votes. The candidate that gets the most electoral votes is the U.S. President for the next 4 years.
Legislative Branch:
Each state has two senators. Senators run for office in the general election and serve for a term of six years. They run according to their party, either Republican or Democrat.
Each state has a certain amount of representatives based on the state's population. There are a total of 435 representatives in the house. They are elected and serve for a two year term. One difference in the election of representatives is that you can only vote for the representatives in your own district where you live and not for any others.
Judicial Branch:
The federal judges serve for life and are appointed by the President. Then the judges are approved by the Senate. Once the judges are serving they have the freedom to quit whenever they want.
