Answer:

If no presidential candidate wins a majority of electoral votes, the election is decided in the House of Representatives.

Explanation:

If it happens that none of the presidential candidates get more than 269 electoral votes, the Twelfth Amendment to the Constitution comes into force and Congress decides who will be the new president. The representatives of each state are entitled to one vote per state and a simple majority of states gives a winner. This situation has occurred twice in American history. The first occurred in 1801: Thomas Jefferson was elected president; the second occurred in 1825, when President John Quincy Adams was elected.
