Electoral votes are based on the number of represenitives and senators a state has at the federal level. These numbers are based on the population of the stat. The more populated a state, the more electoral votes that stat has. (12th Amendment?) Short answer: Because it has a larger population than any other state.

Long answer: Each state has a number of electoral votes equal to the number of members of Congress from that state -- two Senators for each state, plus however many Representatives the state has.

Where did Nixon live after he was president?

Richard Nixon had to re-build his credability following his resignation.

After a period of 'wallowing' and a serious illness, which with the media frenzy many people claimed he 'faked' the illness or was on a 'deathwish', Nixon very nearly did die, however made a full recovery and following this one of his 1st action was to visit China as a private citizen. This at the time was against the wishes of Ford, however Nixon was not an unpopular figure outside of the USA with many countries (Egypt, Russia, China, France etc.) incredulous that Nixon had been effectively forced to resign over what was in reality a very trivial matter.

Nixon spent the remainder of his life still largely active as an elder statesman of politics, providing useful council, particularly for Reagan and Bush Sr. and other presidents to follow.

He continued to visit foreign countries as a private citizen, however unofficially seen as a foreign dignitary with all honours and continued to do so often without the blessing of the then current administrations.

Nixon was also one of the few presidents to request all national security information available to the current president (which is a privilege extended only to previous presidents).

Richard Nixon also dedicated a significant part of his later life (post presidency) to writing his memoirs as well as books on his political policies and predictive world events. He was to prove very astute on some of his political predictions, including iran/contra as well as the fall of the soviet union (however Nixon did state he thought the Soviet Union had '50 years' left in 1980, however at the time he was one of a small number of politicians actually predicting the fall of the union.

Richard Nixon died in 1994 shortly after his wife's death.
