How the Electoral College Works
The president is chosen not by national popular vote but by the Electoral College. Each state holds electoral votes equal to its representation in Congress, for a national total of 538. Most states award all of their electoral votes to the statewide winner, while Maine and Nebraska split theirs by congressional district. A candidate needs a majority — 270 electoral votes — to win the presidency.
