How are state allocated votes in the electoral college?
The number of votes that a state receives in the electoral college is tied to the population of the state. It is possible for a state to gain or lose electoral votes from one Presidential election to another depending on the state's population growth or decline. Thanks for using ChaCha!

About Electoral Votes
Electoral Votes are part of the Electoral College, representatives who formally elect the President and Vice President of the United States of America. Voters in Presidential Elections do not directly vote for the President, instead they vote for electors representing their state. The elector may cast only one vote for President and one vote for Vice-President.
