This report will examine an election of a chief executive.(President/Governor/Mayor) at the federal.

Use different facts, statistics, and other supporting evidence to tell the story of the case/law and conclude with a summary of its overall impacts and effectiveness.

SOURCES

1.Required Number of Sources You may use any sources necessary (internet, books, journal/magazine articles, newspaper articles) with a minimum of five (5)sources. Wikipedia and other online sources that allow for arbitrary changes to be made are NOT acceptable resources to be used.

2.) Citations/Plagiarism As mentioned, plagiarism will not be tolerated. To put it plainly, plagiarism is the use of another’s work without due regard to that person’s credit. The proper citation method is to put in quotations a direct quote sentence and follow the end of the sentence (before the period) with the author’s name and page number. For example, quoting Anderson’s article on page 20 would look like this: (Anderson 20). You should use this method at the end of a sentence/paragraph that is also a paraphrase; that is to say, a section that may be in your own words but takes an idea directly from another source. The source should, of course, also be in your bibliography.

3.) Bibliography/Works Cited Page Logistics The first line should have as a centered heading: Bibliography/Works Cited. Your entries (in proper MLA or APA format) should be listed alphabetically by the author’s last name. PAPER FORMAT

4.) Length Each paper is to be a minimum of three (3) complete pages (excluding your title page and bibliography/works cited page). This does not include charts, graphs, pictures, etc. If you cannot satisfy the requirements in three pages, then please continue. Having three pages does not guarantee you a grade, only that I will grade it! Longer papers are fine but content is much more important.

5.) Font 12 point, Times New Roman (standard Microsoft Word)

6.) Margins One inch (1”) on each side (top, bottom, left, right)

7.) Page Numbering Bottom center of each page but not on your title page or bibliography/works cited page.

8.) Double Spaced The paper itself (i.e., not the title page nor bibliography/works cited page) should be double spaced throughout.

9.)Title Page Logistics The title page must follow this format: An Examination of [Paper Topic Here] by [Your Name]
