They set up their team and start “going on tour” around the country to rally for support and to fundraise for their campaignsCandidates from both parties participate in televised debates. During the debates each candidate will have to answer tough questions about their policies as well as defend their stance on issues and policies against other candidates. Voters cast ballots on Election Day in each state. In 48 states*, the candidate who gets the most statewide citizen votes is to be awarded all of the “electoral votes” for that state. .

- There are a total of 538 electoral votes. These are divided among the states based on each state’s proportional size — the bigger the state’s population the more “votes” it gets. Each state gets 2 votes for its two US Senators, and 1 vote for each member it has in the House of Representatives. In California, we have 2 U.S. Senators and 53 members of the House of Representatives. This means whichever candidate in California that gets the most statewide votes will receive 55 electoral votes.
