What happens if neither presidential candidate gets 270 electoral college votes?
What would happen if neither Vice President Kamala Harris or former President Donald Trump get the 270 electoral college votes that it takes to become the president?

Casey Burgat, an assistant professor at the George Washington University Graduate School of Political Management talks about the possibility of this outcome.
