Are you considering the Popular Vote or Electoral Vote?It is possible to win the popular vote and lose the electoral vote, and therefore the election. It is also possible to win the election with less than 50% of the voting population. Both of these scenarios, as well as others, have happened in actual elections. There have been 12 Presidential elections that were decided by less than a 1% margin; meaning if less than 1% of the voters in certain states had changed their mind to the other candidate the outcome of the entire election would have been different. That is what this page solves. What is the smallest number of total votes that need to be switched from one candidate to another, and from which states, to affect the outcome of the election? |

"It was the only race in which a major political party intentionally ran several presidential candidates. The Whigs ran three different candidates in different regions of the country, hoping that each would be popular enough to defeat Democratic standard-bearer Martin Van Buren in their respective areas. The House of Representatives could then decide between the competing Whig candidates. This strategy failed: Van Buren won a majority of the electoral vote and became President." [Source]Because of this situation, the method of calculation used was not to make another candidate win, but to find the minimum number of votes needed for Van Buren to lose. He would then not have a majority in the electoral vote and the election would be thrown into the House, as the Whig Party had planned.

Electoral districts [Source]
Another method for choosing electors is to divide a state into electoral districts, and the voters of each district choose a single elector, much as states are presently divided into congressional districts for choosing representatives. The electoral districts cannot correspond with congressional districts, though, because there are two more electoral districts than congressional districts. As with congressional districts, moreover, this method is vulnerable to gerrymandering.
States which have used Electoral Vote Districting and the years used:
Illinois: 1820, 1824.
Kentucky: 1792, 1796, 1800, 1804, 1808, 1812, 1816, 1820, 1824.
Maryland: 1796, 1800, 1804, 1808, 1812, 1816, 1820, 1824, 1828, 1832.
Michigan: 1892.
Missouri: 1824.
North Carolina: 1796, 1800, 1804, 1808.
Tennessee: 1804, 1808, 1812, 1816, 1820, 1824, 1828.
