How is the number of Electoral College seats per state determined?
O by the number of party delegates assigned to the state
O by the total number of House and Senate representatives
O by the traditional number assigned under the 12th Amendment
O by giving each state two seats
The number of Electoral College seats per state is determined by the total number of House and Senate representatives for that state. Each state is allocated a certain number of seats in the House of Representatives based on its population, as determined by the decennial census. Additionally, each state has two seats in the Senate regardless of its population. The number of Electoral College seats for a state is therefore equal to the number of House representatives plus two (for the two Senate seats).
