The Electoral College was devised by the founding fathers as a compromise between the election of a President by popular vote and by the Congress. ... College currently consists of 538 electors based on the total number of Representatives and Senators, plus three from the District of Columbia. ... Since the 12th amendment there have been several changes which have affected both the time and the manner of choosing Presidential Electors, but the fundamental workings of the Electoral College remain unaltered.
The main principle in the Electoral College is that the outcome of the popular vote determines the outcome of the electoral vote. Whether a candidate wins by a few votes or a lot of them, she/he wins all the state’s electoral votes.
