The race is so close. Here's what happens if there's a 269-269 Electoral College tie

It’s very unlikely — but theoretically possible — that the presidential election ends with a 269-269 tie in the Electoral College.

That would mean that neither Kamala Harris nor Donald Trump, who are locked in a toss-up race, wins enough electoral votes to become president.

This hasn't happened in modern American politics — it did happen back in 1800 — and after a renewed effort to change how Nebraska allocates its electoral votes failed, it is now looking even less likely that a tie would occur.
