Here's a helpful page about the electoral college:

When you vote for president, you're actually voting for "electors" pledged to a particular candidate...
The number of electors (electoral votes) each state receives in the United States is determined by the total number of representatives and senators that state has in Congress. Each state has a number of electors equal to the total of its senators (always 2) and representatives based on its population size.
Electors are the people who are eligible to vote in an election.
Smaller states are important in the electoral process because they have a significant impact on the outcome of elections. Even though they have fewer electors compared to larger states, their votes can still make a difference in close races and can influence the overall result. This is because every state, regardless of size, plays a role in determining the final outcome of the election.
A representative democracy is a form of government where people choose representatives to make decisions on their behalf. These representatives are elected through a democratic process and are expected to represent the interests and values of the people who elected them.
Hillary Clinton won the popular vote in the 2016 U.S. Presidential election, receiving about 2.9 million more votes than Donald Trump. However, Donald Trump won the Electoral College and thus became President.
