If no candidate receives a majority of electoral votes, then the election goes to the House of Representatives. As a result, Martin Van Buren helped push for a stable two-party system back in the 1800s as a way to mitigate the need for this back-up method to choose a victor. Without the Electoral College, the United States could move to another voting system that more actively encourages third party and independent engagement without the fear of an election in the House or playing "spoiler" in your specific swing state.
