Each state is entitled to a number of electors equal to that state's representation in Congress (Senate + House). Since each state has two senators and at least one Representative, every state has at least three electors. Currently California has the largest number of electors: 55. The electors meet in their respective state capitals in December of each election year to cast their votes for president and vice president. These electors, who together form the electoral college, are the ones who actually elect the president.
Each state has the same number of electors as it has senators and representat â¦ ives (there are two senators from each state, but the number of representatives depends on the population of the state in the most recent census). The District of Columbia, isn't a state, but it has three electors.
