History

Answer:The Electoral College consists of 538 electors from each of the 50 states and Washington, D.C. Each state receives a certain number of electors based on the number of people who live there. Larger states receive larger teams of electors, while smaller states receive smaller teams of electors. And, just as football teams do not accept everyone who auditions, not everyone can be an elector. Each state has its own set of rules for selecting electors. Typically, the electors are chosen by the winning political party in the primary election.

Explanation:The Electoral College counts how many people voted for one presidential candidate and how many voted for the other after everyone in a state has voted. The candidate with the most popular votes receives all of the state's electoral votes. Except for Maine and Nebraska (which split their electoral votes), every state follows this "all or nothing" rule. That is why it is critical that every adult in your community vote. If a candidate wins the popular vote in a state by one extremely small vote, they receive all of the state's electoral votes.
