vice president

In the Framers' plan, the candidate with the second highest number of electoral votes would become D) Vice President. The original plan of the framers was to have each state choose its electors how they saw fit. The electors would meet and exercise their own judgment when they selected the President and Vice President. The Framers believed that this was the best way to select a president because voters in such a large country couldn't learn enough about the candidates to make an informed decision.
