It’s very unlikely — but theoretically possible — that the presidential election ends with an Electoral College tie. If it did come to pass, here's how the next president would be determined.

TL;DR: The election moves to Congress, where the House of Representatives votes for the president and the Sneate for the vice president. Each state gets exactly 1 vote. If a VP is chosen by Jan. 20th but not a P, the new VP becomes acting P until the House chooses a P. (1/2)
Oh fuck off with this.
I'm about to throw this rag in the bin with the NY Times.
States shouldn't be spitting their electoral votes. The electoral college is FAR from perfect (as proportional rep. goes) but splitting the votes breaks it & defeats the purpose of having it to begin with. The state's weighting was built into the system. Splitting the vote only makes it worse
Stop your click bait BS or I will stop donating.
If every state gets one vote, we're fucked in a country where dirt matters more than people. America is basically built to fail
Doesn't "tie go to the runner"?
Maybe report on how one of the candidates is a seditious rapist, promising ethnic cleansing, and implementing a police state against critics, and it can be even more unlikely.
The lengths you're willing to go to to report on the presidential race without actually reporting on it are quite honestly offensive. Be better than this. Please.
