What happens if the election between Harris and Trump ends in a tie?

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

54% : In 2020, Joe Biden received 306 electoral votes while Trump received 232.
52% : If this election is decided by the House, conventional wisdom is that Trump could win the presidency as Republicans control 26 House state delegations while Democrats control 22.
44% : But if Trump takes four of the swing states, then he takes the electoral vote majority outright.
40% : But if Trump flips Arizona, Nevada and Georgia, but the rest of the map stays the same, he still comes up short, and Kamala Harris wins with exactly 270 electoral votes.
33% : While several presidents in recent history have won the White House without the popular vote - including Trump in 2016 - they have still managed to take a majority of electoral votes, meaning the process by which the House decides has not been used for 200 years.
25% : Polling suggests Trump could flip some of the six battleground states this fall.
