Quirky rules about the Presidential Election might surprise you—in fact, they will surprise you

There are some really quirky laws governing a Presidential Election. For instance, did you know that if a president-elect dies before he's sworn in, but after Congress certifies an election that the vice president-elect would become the president? Or, did you know if a Puerto Rican person lives on the mainland [or Hawaii or Alaska], he or she can vote in the Presidential Election—but if that same person's established residency was on the Island of Puerto Rico, he or she can't vote in the regular election? 



There are tons of other instances like this one—and thanks to the good people of MSNBC, a lot of strange questions are answered about the election. This is one you'll definitely want to read—you're bound to learn something new. Click here for more.
