Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
definition of the electoral college:
"voters elect a group of electors whose only purpose is to elect the president and vice president. This group of electors is known as the Electoral College."
" Each elector casts one vote following the general election. The candidate who gets 270 votes or more wins. "
The elector cast vote after the general election; meaning they are the ones who "directly" select the president, however, the group is selected by the voters and they vote after the general election but it is up to them to decide who the next president truly is.
