Question

Who has the power to choose the president in the event of a tie or no majority in the electoral college?.

Answer 1

If no candidate wins a majority of electoral votes, the presidential election is decided by Congress rather than the Electoral College. Out of the three presidential candidates who garnered the most electoral votes, the House of Representatives chooses the president.

If there was a tie or a lack of a majority, who chose the president?

The House of Representatives chooses the president from among the three candidates who garnered the most electoral votes if no candidate obtains a majority of those votes.  There is one vote per state delegation. Out of the two vice presidential candidates who received the most electoral votes, the Senate chooses the vice president.

Who decides when a presidential election is tied?

The United States vice president must preside over the Senate, but without casting a vote unless the Senate is evenly divided (U.S. Constitution, Article I, section 3). 294 votes to break ties have been cast since 1789.
