The House of Representatives elected a President for the first time in 1801 when il settled the tie between Thomas Jefferson (right, | top) and Aaron Burr (left) in Jefferson's favor.

Below is an artist's conception of the scene. Representative William Lem- | ke, Union Party Presidential | candidate, and Father Charles radio priest, have- predicted that an electoral col- lege deadlock will throw the choice of President and Vice- President into Congress. ’ The Constitution provides that | | the House shall choose the | President if candidates fail to receive a clear majority of elec- toral votes.
