No California has 55 votes and Georgia only has 15.
It entirely depends on which states went Republican. Not all states have equal numbers of electors since they have different populations. For example, Alaska (the smallest state in population) has 3 electors, whereas California (the largest state in population) has more than 50. However, you can add it up to get 269 electoral votes, that is how many states you would need.
The number of presidential electors in a state is equal to the number of Representatives plus the number of Senators (always two with the exception of D.C.) for that particular state. As a result, California (before 2010 census) has far and away the most electors in the electoral college with 55, Texas is second with 34, and New York takes third with 31. Seeing as the number of electors in a state is dependent upon the number of Representatives and the number of representatives in a state is proportional to the state population, then basically the number of electors correlates to the number of people in the state, leaving California on top.

Dude, there are 4 presidential electors in Idaho. The number of electors in any state is equal to that state's congressional presence- Meaning, a state has the same number of electors as it has people in congress. In Idaho, that means 4 (because we have 2 senators and 2 representatives).
Each state has a number of electors equal to the number of its Senators and Representatives in the United States Congress.By the number of seats each State has in Congress
No, there are not as many electors in each state as there are senators. The number of electors in each state is equal to the total number of representatives and senators that the state has in Congress. Each state has two senators, but the number of representatives varies based on the state's population.
The total number of electors equal the number of Congress-people from every state. There are two Senators from every state and House of Representative members are based on population.
its equal to the number of senators and representatives in Congress.
How can 2 prime numbers ever be equal They cant be Equal.
closeThe number of presidential electors each state appoints is equal to the total of that state's U.S. Representatives and U.S. Senators. Since every state has two U.S. Senators, the number of electors is the number of the state's U.S. Representatives plus two.
According to Article Two, Section 1, Clause 1: "Each State shall appoint, in such Manner as the Legislature thereof may direct, a Number of Electors, equal to the whole Number of Senators and Representatives to which the State may be entitled in the Congress: but no Senator or Representative, or Person holding an Office of Trust or Profit under the United States, shall be appointed an Elector." Thus, the number is equal to the sum of the Representatives and Senators for that state. Under the 23rd Amendment, the District of Columbia is given a number of electors equal to the lessor of (a) if it were a state OR (b) the fewest electors given to any other existing state. Currently, D.C. gets 3 electors.
