it depends on the population of the state
The electors in each state are elected by the popular vote in the presidential election and swear in advance to vote for the presidential candidate who wins the election in their state.
closeThe number of presidential electors each state appoints is equal to the total of that state's U.S. Representatives and U.S. Senators. Since every state has two U.S. Senators, the number of electors is the number of the state's U.S. Representatives plus two.
The number of presidential elections for each state is determined by the number of electors assigned to that state. Each state is allocated a number of electors equal to its number of Senators (always 2) plus its number of Representatives in the House of Representatives (based on its population). The total number of electors across all states is 538, so each state's electors contribute to that total and collectively determine the outcome of the presidential election.
The population of a given state determines the number of representatives the state gets.
