Electoral votes are the type of votes that actual elect the president.
It is impossible for candidates NOT to receive electoral votes. The president is solely elected upon electoral votes. At the current point in time a candidate MUST receive at least 270 electoral votes to win. If a candidate does not receive 270 votes, the U.S, House of Representatives elects the President from among the 3 candidates receiving the most electoral votes. 12th Amendment to the constitution

Ulysses S. Grant won all 286 electoral votes against Horace Greeley. George Washington also received all 69 electoral votes against John Adams.
Ulysses S. Grant Even if Horace Greeley hadn't died between the casting of the popular votes and the casting of the electoral votes, it was obvious from the popular votes that Pres. Grant was the clear winner, anyway.
In the U. S. Presidential Election of 1872, President Grant's major opponent was Horace Greeley, who died in November of 1872, after the casting of the popular votes but before the casting of the electoral votes. However, based on the Election Day voting Grant was the clear winner anyway.
It is extremely unlikely that a candidate would drop out of the campaign after the November election, when the electors are appointed. However, in the election of 1872, Grant's main opponent, Horace Greeley, died between the casting of the popular votes in November and the casting of the electoral votes in December. Those electors who had pledged to vote for Greeley ended up spitting their votes among four others, and the three votes that Greeley did receive were not counted. Greeley would not have had enough votes to beat Grant anyway.
