text: What if there was no majority vote or if there were to be a tie? the likeliness of this happening with the Electoral College is very low compared to the likeliness of this happening in a Popular vote. Electoral College vote likely exceeds that of the Popular vote.(source 3 paragraph 18)The Electoral College also gives the Larger states a chance to balance out what they've lost in representation in sanate by the constitution meaning they get to express the peoples voices better maybe as well as the small states who have the right amount of senate per population. Balance is very important in all things for a succesful country if the states aren't happy with the amount of voice and say they get in the federal government then we as a country may face instability as a whole.
