The U.S. Electoral College system is a system of indirect election. In accordance with Article II of the United States Constitution, electoral votes determine the President and Vice President of the United States. The electors are elected by direct popular vote in each state and each candidate for elector swears in advance whom he will vote for. The electors from each of the 50 U.S. states and the District of Columbia then cast their electoral votes to elect the President and Vice President of the United States.
Examples of direct popular elections are elections of the representatives in the U. S. House of Representatives and the U.S. Senate.

The United States is the only example of a country in the world which uses an electoral college to indirectly elect the executive, so every other democracy is one without an electoral college.
The electoral college was created indirectly. The U.S. electoral system was created by the United States Constitution which was ratified in 1788. The Twelfth Amendment (Amendment XII) to the United States Constitution provides the current procedure for electing the President and Vice President. The amendment was proposed by the Congress on December 9, 1803, and was ratified by the requisite three-fourths of state legislatures on June 15, 1804.
