If you're looking for the original plan for the Electoral College it was laid out as follows:

Article II, Section 1, Clause 2 of the Constitution:

Each state shall appoint, in such Manner as the Legislature thereof may direct, a Number of electors, equal to the whole Number of Senators and Representatives to which the State may be entitled in the Congress: but no Senator or Representative, or Person holding an Office of Trust or Profit under the United States, shall be appointed an Elector.

Article II, Section 1, Clause 4 of the Constitution:

The Congress may determine the Time of choosing the Electors, and the Day on which they shall give their Votes; which Day shall be the same throughout the United States.

Article II, Section 1, Clause 3 of the Constitution:

This article descrived the original way in which the President and Vice President were chosen by electors. Originally, the candidate who received the most votes (popular vote) and more than half of the electors would become President and the runner up would become Vice President.
