Answer:

C. It was a compromise between big and small states so that states with a larger population cannot control presidential elections

Explanation:

Durign its earlier creation, small states believed that there is no point for them to be uniting under one federal government. This perception was created because they typically have lower population compared to the bigger states.

Meaning that if smaller states and bigger states conduct a vote to elect a government that rule all of them, smaller states will always lose if the result is determined by simple majority.

As a compromise, electoral college was created.  Rather than basing the total number of votes based on the number of population, The election in the electoral college is based on  the amount of people that each state has within the The Senate and House of Representatives.

This provide an opportunity for smaller states to over the big states during the general election.
