How does a person win a presidential election?
A person wins a Presidential election in America slightly different from what most people think. Most people would tell you that the citizens vote and all votes are accounted for and whichever candidate receives the most votes is the President. However, the President is in fact selected by the electoral college. This is an uncommon occurrence but in the event that the popular vote (the citizens vote) differs from the electoral college, then the President is selected by the electoral college. So in reality citizens votes don't mean anything.
How are electoral votes calculated?
Electoral votes are calculated based on the number of senators and representatives each state has. Each state has a total number of electoral votes equal to the sum of its senators and representatives in the U.S. Congress. The candidate who wins the popular vote in a state typically receives all of that state's electoral votes. The candidate who reaches at least 270 out of 538 total electoral votes wins the presidential election.
How many electoral votes does a candidate need to receive to win the presidency in the electoral colldge?

Why did the presidential election of 1824 need to be decided by the House of Representatives?
Back in the 1800 the electors in the electoral college only got one vote and it was for the president so the person who received the most votes was the President and the person who came in 2nd was the Vice President and there were 4 candidates for Presidency and the two of them tied for first place, and even though they were from the same party Thomas Jefferson who was selected as his party's choice for president tied with Aaron Burr which was the party's choice for Vice President. And in our Constitution if there is a tie or neither member reaches the now designated number to get the Presidency, the House of Representatives (since they represent more of the US's population) votes on which person receives the nod for Presidency. And now today each elector gets two votes one for the Presidential candidate and one for the Vice Presidential candidate.
Why are swing states important to election?
Because they have a better chance to get people to vote for them. The election is basically a math problem. The person who reaches 270 electoral votes wins. I live in California and the election is over before my 53 electoral votes are counted if the states add up correctly in the swing states.
