Bernie Sanders can still become president?

[lowell]

Just read this article....
What if.....Clinton gets 267 electoral votes and Trump wins 268 while
Vermont write in votes win Vermont for Sanders giving him 3 votes.
Rules state that the House of Representatives then choose from the top 3 since no one got 270 electoral votes.
Instead of the GOP supporting Trump Ryan is able to swing the vote to Sanders.
Is this scenario possible?
I do put the over/under for Bernie write-in votes at 250k.
I like the over.

Today, a candidate must receive 270 of the 538 votes to win the election, so George W. Bush won the 2000 election by one electoral vote. In cases where no candidate wins a majority of electoral votes, the decision is thrown to the House of Representatives by virtue of the 12th Amendment. The House then selects the president by majority vote with each state delegation receiving one vote to cast for the three candidates who received the most electoral votes.
