The 12th Amendment states that in the event of a tie vote in the Electoral College, the House of Representatives would be entitled to select the new president of the United States. In this case, each of the 50 states in the House gets exactly one vote. The District of Columbia cannot vote. The first candidate to win the votes of any 26 states is the new president.

The Constitution most likely gives this job to the House of Representatives because the representatives are democratically elected and represent the will and interests of the people.

Because in the house of representatives there are 435 people which means there couldn't be a tie and if they were to give it to the senate there could be a tie.
