So in the case of an electoral college TIE, the House of Representatives choose between the top 3 candidates who is President. They do this by virtue of each STATEs HOUSE delegation getting 1 vote. (They vote amongst themselves and whichever candidate wins that vote, gets that states single VOTE in the House tiebreaker).

Here is my question... what if the state has an even amount of representatives? Then what?

By same token, when the Senate votes for VP. What if the vote is 50/50? Then what?
