House ready for 269-269=The Hill.com=

What would happen if the Electoral College was tied 269-269? Although rare and improbable, there are 30 ways this could happen.

If a tied Electoral College is thrown into the House for a decision, there are truly no rules that govern the process. Each state would receive 1 vote. Currently the GOP controls 30 state delegations. This would give President Bush the victory, or would it?

Currently, House GOP leaders are looking at creating rules that would govern the process. Could this happen, yes. Will it happen? Unlikely.
