Answer:

the house of representatives decides in case of a tie

Step-by-step explanation:

the house of reps voted 35 times and each time was a tie except for the last time where alexander hamilton had dinner with one of the federalists in the house of reps and told him that burr would make a bad president

also to the other answer, ur right it is impossible now to have a tie because after there was a tie in the 1800 election, they made the 12th amendment, preventing ties to happen again

hope this helps!
