What if...
A viable third party (does not have to be a historical party) broke into the spotlight? Say, there's a party of the North, West, and South. Each receive fairly substantial portions of the electoral college (enough so that it is thrown into the House).
How many times would something like this have to happen before the method of electing a President would be changed? For instance, changing the word "majority" to "plurality" might solve most of the problems.
Anyways, how many times must the election be thrown into the House before a serious push would be made to fix the election process? What effects would this have on American politics? Would there need to be more changes?
