Amendment XII
The electors shall
meet in their respective states and vote by ballot for President and
Vice-President, one of whom, at least, shall not be an inhabitant of
the same state with themselves; they shall name in their ballots the
person voted for as President, and in distinct ballots the person
voted for as Vice-President, and they shall make distinct lists of
all persons voted for as President, and of all persons voted for as
Vice-President, and of the number of votes for each, which lists they
shall sign and certify, and transmit sealed to the seat of the
government of the United States, directed to the President of the
Senate;--The President of the Senate shall, in the presence of the
Senate and House of Representatives, open all the certificates and
the votes shall then be counted;--the person having the greatest
number of votes for President, shall be the President, if such number
be a majority of the whole number of electors appointed; and if no
person have such majority, then from the persons having the highest
numbers not exceeding three on the list of those voted for as
President, the House of Representatives shall choose immediately, by
ballot, the President. But in choosing the President, the votes shall
be taken by states, the representation from each state having one
vote; a quorum for this purpose shall consist of a member or members
from two-thirds of the states, and a majority of all the states shall
be necessary to a choice. And
if the House of Representatives shall not choose a President whenever
the right of choice shall devolve upon them, before the fourth day of
March next following, then the Vice-President shall act as President,
as in the case of the death or other constitutional disability of the
President. The person having the greatest number of votes as
Vice-President, shall be the Vice-President, if such number be a
majority of the whole number of electors appointed, and if no person
have a majority, then from the two highest numbers on the list, the
Senate shall choose the Vice-President; a quorum for the purpose
shall consist of two-thirds of the whole number of Senators, and a
majority of the whole number shall be necessary to a choice. But no
person constitutionally ineligible to the office of President shall
be eligible to that of Vice-President of the United States.
