One could win the US presidential election without the ten states with the highest number of electoral votes (256), although since numbers nine through eleven each have 15 votes if all eleven of the states with the most electoral votes went for one candidate there is no way the other candidate could win (271 votes against). In the 'top ten ' scenario, all of the remaining states, with the exception of Massachusetts (12 votes) would have to be won by the candidate collecting electoral votes from the smaller (when calculated by electoral votes) states.
