Who officially elects the president of the U.S.?
The electors, aka the Electoral College (though that term is not used in the Constitution). The US Constitution specifies the number of electors and the way they are to be apportioned among the states. It doesn't explicitly state how the states are to choose their electors. At present, all state choose their electors based on the results of the popular election; in most states it's on a "winner take all" basis, but they're not required to do it that way.
