Trivia: What formal body elects the President and Vice President?
Electoral College
U.S. Congress
The District of Columbia
Constitutional Convention
The correct answer is Electoral College
So why is this answer correct? : When U.S. citizens cast their vote, they are actually voting to choose the candidates’ chosen electors, who will then vote on their behalf. The Electoral College process is established in Article II, Section 1 of the U.S. Constitution. Each state has as many electors as they do representatives and senators in the U.S. Congress, with a total of 538 electors nationwide. A candidate must win a majority — 270 electoral college votes — to win the presidency.
