States don't really have electoral districts - they have electoral votes allocated based on the total of their senators and representatives. Each state thus has at LEAST 3 electors since each has 2 senators and at least one US Representative. A state with 6 seats in the US House of Representatives gets 8 electoral votes. A state with 12 US Representatives gets 14 electoral votes - and so forth.

Most states appoint their electors on a winner-take-all basis, based on the statewide popular vote on Election Day. Maine and Nebraska are the only two current exceptions. Maine and Nebraska distribute their electoral votes proportionally, with two at-large electors representing the statewide winning presidential and vice-presidential candidates and one elector each representing the winners from each of their Congressional districts.
