Answer 2

The answer is: gets all the electoral votes.

Step-by-step explanation:

In most states, the winner or candidate who has the most popular vote or highest number of votes, usually gets all the state’s electoral votes. In the present-day, the District of Columbia and 48 states give all their electoral votes to the candidate who wins with the highest number of votes; only two states don’t apply this procedure.
