Most people that choose to go against the Electoral College would say that "with the Electoral College its not really our choice when we vote because in the end the electors from the party vote for the president". In source 2, the passage states "Perhaps most worrying is the prospect of a tie in the electoral vote."

Also, if a tie does take place then the Senate would vote for the vice-president.
