If this EV tie occurs, it is most likely that the GOP will control >=26 state delegations in the House and elect Romney. In the Senate, if there is a 50-50 tie, I would expect a filibuster to stop a vote. Then, after Romney were inaugurated, I suspect he would nominate a VP to fill the vacancy under the 25th Amendment. That could lead to all kinds of legal arguments and with a tied Senate and no VP to break ties, it would be very messy. Probably a compromise would occur but who knows what it would be!
