If you're playing averages wouldn't it be best to assume the person that gets the most electoral votes wins? I'm asking because my wiki page has crashed.
No, I just now justified my response by saying I personally believed more people would vote for her. I figured it would amount to a decisive electoral victory but I was wrong. I was quite upset about it.
As per your question (because you don't like it when people ignore them): 98% of the time. Since wikipedia crashed on you: Andrew Jackson got the most electoral votes in 1824 but did not get a majority of the available electoral votes. The House then selected John Quincy Adams.
