Electoral
Vote Calculator
In
the race
for president, the winner of the popular vote in each state wins all the electoral votes in
that
state (except in
Maine and Nebraska).
There are 538 total electoral votes and 270 electoral votes - a
majority - are needed to win.
Use the
Electoral Vote Calculator to determine the total electoral votes
for the Republican and Democratic candidates by selecting the Rep
or Dem button
for each state.
The
calculator only allows for one winner in each state.
The
calculator has been pre-set to the 2004 election results in
the race between George W. Bush, the Republican, and John Kerry, the Democrat.
The
totals for the Republican and
the Democrat are automatically
recalculated as the candidates are selected. The
calculator can be returned to the 2004 results by clicking
the reset button.
