How many total electors are there in the Electoral College?

100

270

538

Total electors in the Electoral College are 538 because they are the sum of the U.S. Senators (two per state, totaling 100) plus the Representatives (435) plus three electors for Washington, D.C. (as established by the 23rd Amendment). So, 100 + 435 + 3 = 538. The majority needed to win is 270, but the question asks for the total number of electors, which is 538.

435
