Electoral College Ties - 270toWin

How is the president elected if the electoral vote ends in a tie or no candidate reaches 270 electoral votes?

I can see a 269-269 tie if Trump holds Florida, North Carolina, Ohio, Iowa, Arizona, and takes Minnesota or Wisconsin. Electoral Votes are split in Nebraska and Maine. Give Biden one from the corn husker state and Trump one from the lobster state. Then it goes to the House of Representatives and Trump wins. Read link for explanation.

No you do not. The Constitution dictates the process and your ignorance of the Constitution dictates your juvenile response.

There is no gotcha moment for you to feel superior about. It has happened before in US history which caused a change to the Constitution.
