How does Texas choose Electors?
Texas selects its electors for the Electoral College through a winner-takes-all system during the presidential election. The candidate who receives the most votes in the state is awarded all of Texas's 38 electoral votes. This process is determined by the state's popular vote, with the electors pledged to vote for the candidate who wins the majority. Electors are chosen by political parties in the state, typically at state party conventions or through party committees.
What happens if Texas does not vote in the electoral vote?
The total number of electoral votes is 538 - 100 (senators) + 435 (representatives) + 3 (for DC). A majority is 270 - one more than half of the total number of 538. If Texas did not cast its electoral votes, the President still would be elected in the electoral college if a candidate received 270 electoral votes. If no candidate receives at least the required majority of 270 electoral votes, the Twelfth Amendment of the United States Constitution provides that the U.S. House of Representatives will select the president, with each of the fifty state delegations casting one vote, and the U.S. Senate will select the vice-president.
