In the event of a tie in the Electoral College for the presidency, the decision is made by the U.S. House of Representatives. Each state delegation casts one vote for one of the top candidates, and a majority of state delegations is required to win. If the House cannot reach a decision, the 12th Amendment allows the Senate to elect the vice president from among the top two vice presidential candidates.
