A candidate can win the popular vote but lose the election if they receive more votes from the general public but fewer electoral votes from the Electoral College. The Electoral College system in the United States determines the winner of the presidential election based on the number of electoral votes each candidate receives, rather than the total number of popular votes nationwide.
the electoral system of 1800 failed because there were not enough guidelines in place to do the job. In the election of 1800, both Jefferson and Aaron Burr received the same number of electoral votes, this is why the House decided.
The three methods of presidential election discussed by the framers of the Constitution include using electoral college, simply selecting the president, and electing directly. As of 2014, the president is elected using the electoral college.
The U.S. electoral system was created in 1788 by the United States Constitution. The first U.S. presidential election was in 1789. George Washington was elected as the first president of the United States. The election was conducted under the new United States Constitution, which had been ratified earlier in 1788. In the election, George Washington received all 69 electoral votes and was unanimously elected president. John Adams was elected vice-president. Since 1788 the U.S. electoral system has been modified by amendment to the United States Constitution. Further changes to the U.S. electoral system would require additional amendment to the United States Constitution.

The founding fathers wanted everyone (well, property owners and white men) to be able to vote for the president and the vice president, but did not trust the system, so they put the electoral college in to have the final say on the election.
