Assuming these 43 representatives were 41 members of congress and 2 senators, the state would have 43 electoral votes.
The number of electoral votes is equal to the sum of the Representatives and Senators. Also, there are 2 Senators for each state. So Pennsylvania would have 2 Senators and 18 Representatives.
Each state has electoral votes equal to the total of the 2 representatives the state has in the U.S. Senate plus the number of representatives the state has in the House of Representatives. Since every state has two senators and at least one representative to the House, every state has at least 3 electoral votes. NOTE: The 23rd Amendment to the US Constitution grants the District of Columbia 3 electoral votes - equivalent to what they would have if they were a state although they have neither US Senators nor a representative in the US House of Representatives.
The number of Representatives in Congress depends on the state's population in the latest census. The number of Electoral College votes is the sum of the Senators and Representatives that a state has (giving a minimum of 3 votes).
It would have 6 members of the House of Representatives. Each state has a number of electoral votes that is equal to the number of its senators and prepresentatives. * electors minus 2 senators equals 6 representatives.
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. Since every state has two senators and at least one representative to the House, every state has at least 3 electoral votes. The number of representative in the U.S. House of Representatives is fixed at 435. Every 10 years the U.S. Census Bureau takes a census of the population in each state. The 435 representatives in the U.S. House of Representatives is then reapportioned among the 50 states based on the population in each state. The District of Columbia gets 3 electoral votes. Therefore, the total number of electoral votes is fixed at 538 - 100 (senators) + 435 (representatives) + 3 (for DC). The number of electoral votes for individual states may increase or decrease based on the results of the census results.

Each state has the number of electors in the Electoral College that equals the total number of US Senators added to the Representatives in the House from that state. If state A has 23 Representatives and 2 Senators (all states have two Senators) then state A would have 25 electoral votes (electors) on the Electoral College.
270 is the minimum number required to win at president.This number is half the total of 538 plus one, i.e a majority.The number of electoral college members is set by the number of US House Representatives (set at 435 seats since 1911), the number of US Senators (2 per state = 100), plus 3 votes for Washington DC.(If no candidate gets this majority, the election is decided by the incoming House of Representatives. The House must then choose the president from among the top three candidates recipients of electoral votes in a special election in which each state gets one vote.)
It would have 9 electoral votes.
If neither candidate gets a majority of the Electoral Votes, the election for President is decided in the House of Representatives, with each state delegation having one vote. Senators would elect the Vice-President.
270 electoral votes are needed at present in order to be elected PresidentThe total number of Electors is currently 538, 535 from the States (435 for their Representatives, 100 for their Senators) plus three from the District of Columbia. 270 is one more than half of this number and so is a majority of the vote.However, if no candidate gets 270, the House of Representatives chooses the President from among the top three in electoral votes. The number of votes the winner got would vary according to how many people got votes and the distribution of the votes.
Washington DC gets 3 electoral votes.D.C. gets THREE electoral votes as if it were a state, but will never get more than the least populous state.Source: The Constitution of the United States, Amendment XXIII
