How the President of America is elected ?
Answer: B
The President is elected through the electoral college: citizens elect the electors, who then vote for the President.
Under Article II of the US Constitution, voters in each state choose a slate of electors equal to the state's number of Senators and Representatives. The electors then cast their votes for President, and a majority of the electoral college (270 of 538) is needed to win.
The election is therefore indirect, not direct, even though the electors are pledged to candidates. Congress elects the President only if no candidate has a majority (the House then chooses), and the Senate alone never elects the President.
