is awarded the state's electoral votes.

5. The state's electors convene in their respective state capitals on the first Monday after the second Wednesday in December.
6. The electors vote for president and vice president on separate ballots.
7. The electoral votes are then counted by the President of the Senate in a joint session of Congress on January 6th.
