The primary role of the Electoral College in George Washington’s election to the presidency in 1789 was that it represented the people's vote and unanimously selected him as the new president. Washington was the only president to be elected unanimously, receiving all 69 electoral votes. This highlighted the Electoral College's function as a mechanism for translating the will of the voters into a formal selection of the president.
