Each State has a number of electors equal to its total number of representatives. Because of the number of representatives is based on population, states with a bigger population have more electors. Hope this helps you.
The number of presidential electors is equal to the number of Representatives and Senators each state has. Thus the minimum number of electors from each state is three: two for each Senator and one for each Representative. Although the number of electors is equal to the number of members of Congress, no member of Congress may be an elector.
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.

270 electoral votes in the Electoral College are needed to win the U.S. presidency.
