Question

In the general election presidents are elected using a process called the Electoral College. How is the number of electoral votes each State gets calculated?

Answer 1

Electoral votes are allocated among the States based on the Census. Every State is allocated a number of votes equal to the number of senators and representatives in its U.S. Congressional delegation—two votes for its senators in the U.S. Senate plus a number of votes equal to the number of its Congressional districts.

Hopefully that helped.
