- Several polling organizations only poll in particular states or regions
- Electoral maps project which candidate will win the electoral votes from each state
- Whoever wins the popular vote in a particular state wins all the electoral votes from that state
- To win, a candidate must win 270 electoral votes
- If each candidate wins 269 electoral votes, the House of Representatives decides who becomes president
