Each state has electoral votes equal to the total of the 2 representative the state has in the U.S. Senate plus the number of representative the state has in the House of Representatives. Since every state has two senators and at least one representative to the House, every state has at least 3 electoral votes. 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. The District of Columbia gets 3 electoral votes. Therefore, the total number of electoral votes is fixed at 538 - 100 (senators) + 435 (representatives) + 3 (for DC). The number of electoral votes for individual states may increase or decrease each 10-years based on the results of the updated census results.

How does the winner take all feature of the electoral college affect how a candidate runs their campaign?
Except in Maine and Nebraska, all of the electoral votes for a state go to the candidate who receives the most votes, even if it is only by a tiny margin. This means that Presidential candidates will focus most of their campaigning on states with large populations, and therefore more electoral votes. Winning just 6 or 7 key "swing states" will often be enough to guarantee an electoral victory. In the elections of 1876, 1888, and 2000, the winning candidate did not get a plurality of the popular vote, only a majority of the electoral votes. There have been several proposals advanced for direct election of the President by popular vote.
