In United
States presidential elections two votes matter. One is national popular
vote which is the sum of all votes cast in every state and the District
of Columbia. The second is the electoral college vote—the one that
really matters—wherein each state has a number of electors proportionate
to its population. The electoral college has 538 electors, and a
candidate needs to win 270 electoral votes - half of the total plus one -
to win the White House.
