Every state has two senators in the U.S. Senate and at least one representative to the U.S. House of Representatives. The total number 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.
Each state is apportioned a number of representatives based on state population. Population is determined every 10 years with a census. In conjunction with state representatives, each state is given 2 senators to represent them in congress. The number of representatives plus the number of senators equals the number of electorial votes each state is given.
The state picks delegates who cast electoral votes for a state based upon the which canadiate won the popular vote in that state.

10 votes each state
Each state can have 2 delegates to Congress.
I dknowknow
States don't have "delegates to Congress," they have Representatives and Senators. Territories have non-voting delegates. The number of Representatives a State has is determined by its population. They each have two Senators.
Each state gets one vote
Assuming these 43 representatives were 41 members of congress and 2 senators, the state would have 43 electoral votes.
Each state has a different number. I have placed a link with a picture showing how many each state has.
