text: The one situation that most people worry about within the electoral college is when there is a tie in the electoral vote. In this situation, the decision of the election would be placed into the hands of the House of Representatives and the Senate chooses the Vice-Presidential candidate best suited for the job. It does not matter how many representatives there are for any one state, as stated in the article "The Indefensible Electoral College: Why even the best-laid defenses of the system are wrong" by Bradford Plumer. He states that "Because each state casts only one vote, the single representative from Wyoming, representing 500,000 voters, would have as much say as the 55 representatives from California, representing 35 million voters." This means that no state has more power than another in this process, and every representative has the same amount of power when it comes down to chooosing a candidate best suited for being president. Additionally, it creates a sense of balance between all of the states and nobody has an unfair advantage when electing the next president.
