No. In the event of a tie the House of Representatives picks the President (but not the VP), but they vote by state delegations, with each state having one vote and a majority of states (26) needed to win. Each state's vote is determined by whichever candidate the majority of the delegation votes for. In the event of a tie, that counts as an abstention by that state.The Senate picks the VP, in the ordinary fashion of one Senator one vote, but in the event of a tie the sitting VP doesn't get a vote. In the event that three or more candidates get electoral votes and that none of them have the needed 270 majority, then the House gets to choose from the top 3 for president, while the Senate gets to choose from amongst the top 2 for VP. |
