This has never happened. however should it occur the house of representatives (constitutionally speaking excluding any amendments) would in fact take the three candidates that have received the most electoral votes (there must be at least three in order for this to occur.) and elect them. each member of the house gets one vote. before amendments were made to the constitution it is said that the senate would elect the vice president the same way however this is unlikely to  occur as the current way we pick vp's is through the president himself. hope this helped!

The 538 members of the Electoral College cast their votes for President and Vice President in meetings held in the 50 state capitals and the District of Columbia in mid-December of presidential election years. If all 538 electors are appointed, 270 electoral votes (i.e., a majority of 538 members of the Electoral College) are required to elect the President and the Vice President.

Answer:

A letter; boycott.

Explanation:

The American Revolutionary War was a war of independence of the United States of America that was fought between the 19th of April, 1775 and 3rd of September, 1783. The war started when the delegates from the thirteen (13) American colonies in Congress (First continental congress) revolted against the Great Britain over their lack of representation in the colonies and refusal to give consent to parliament's taxation such as Stamp Act and Townshend Acts.

During the Revolutionary Period, majority of the residents of East and West Florida were loyalists; thus, they refused or objected to sending representatives to any of the sessions of the continental congress that comprised of the thirteen (13) North American colonies. These loyalists were commonly referred to as Royalists, Tories, or King's men during the Revolutionary Period. The loyalists (residents of East and West Florida) went around raiding nearby states and as such were referred to as group of American colonists who were inimical to the liberty of America by the Patriots.

The First Continental Congress (Association) in 1774 sent a letter to King George III asking him to respect the colonists' rights as British citizens. Organized a boycott of British goods such as British tea and banned trade with Britain.
