Answer:

A state's number of electors equals the number of representatives plus two electors for the senators the state has in the United States Congress.

Explanation:

The Electoral College is the process by which the states and District of Columbia elect the president of the United States. Each state is represented by a number of electors equal to the size of its congressional delegation. There are 538 electors in total. To win the Electoral College, a candidate must receive a majority at least 270 electoral votes

The Electoral College will meet in mid-December to cast their votes after the general election on November 3, 2020. Although there is no constitutional provision or federal law requiring electors to vote in accordance with the election results in their state, electors typically vote for their state's popular vote winner. Some states have provisions permitting the disqualification and replacement of an elector whose vote deviates from the state's popular vote.

pochemuha
In 610 CE, the prophet Muhammad has a vision that ultimately led to the creation of Islam. However, when Muhammad died in 632 CE, people disagreed over who should succeed him as caliph. The Sunnis believed that Abu Bakr (his successor) was the right choice, which the Shiites disagreed, believing that the next caliph should've been Ali, Muhammad's brother in law. Still to this day, there is a definite split, and while they both have the same fundamental beliefs, neither get along well. This issue is especially prevalent in the Middle East where the majority of people are Sunnis, however the Shiites do not want them to hold power, so rebellion occurs. Likewise, when the Shiites gain power, the Sunnis rebel. The terrorist group ISIS is technically fighting for the Sunnis, however it is important to note that they practice a very radical form and do not represent the beliefs of most Muslims.

Why did tensions escalate between Israel and Egypt in 1952?
Nikitich [7]
The correct answer is <span>D. The president of Egypt blocked Israeli ships from accessing the Suez Canal. 

The president of Egypt announced that the Canal would no longer be neutral ground, open for all, and that it would slowly become nationalized and used to the benefit of Egypt. As they disliked Israel they banned Israeli ships from passing through the canal which was a huge strike to their economy since trading revolved around the canal.</span>
