The Electoral College is a powerfun entity during elections.

The Electoral College is not a real institution and never meets. States appoint electors who vote. Those Electors vote in their states (that is the Electoral College). These votes are sealed and transmitted to Dick Cheney who opens and has them counted before Congress.

From what I understand this is the only place where qualifications come into the picture. This occurs Jan. 3.
