Why vote if all a candidate has to do is win the big 11 electoral states?
No candidate has ever won just the eleven big states. Almost always each candidate wins some of the large states so the winner must win some smaller states as well. Also the elections for Congressmen and Senators are held at the same time as president. You surely need to vote in for these positions, so it would seem foolish not to show your choice for President even if carrying your state is irrelevant to determining this election. In the next election your state might decide the election and good showing for your party can help the next candidate from your party raise campaign funds and win next time.

What if no candidates receive the majority vote and has this ever happened?
If the United-States Presidential Election ends in a tie then Congress has to elect a President themselves, if the Democrats would be the Majority in Congress then they would vote for the Candidate running for President for their Party and he would be elected President of the United-States, and if the Republicans had the Majority in Congress then they would elect the Candidate running for President for their Party or so I've been told. I hope this answer helps :).
