  • U.S. Senate 100 seats 路 6-year term 路 Direct popular election, two senators per state; one-third of seats are ordinarily contested every two years

The President and Vice President are elected together through a state-based Electoral College process rather than by a single national popular vote. The EAC is the federal agency focused on election administration, but elections are highly decentralized and are usually administered by state and local officials.
