What is the number of democrat and republican electoral votes for each state?

Electoral votes are not divided between democrats and republicans. They are allocated among the states. Each state has electoral votes equal to the total of the 2 representative the state has in the U.S. Senate plus the number of representative the state has in the House of Representatives.

Each state then votes that states electoral votes for the U.S. presidential candidate who won the election in that state.
