1 answer

To determine the total number of electors in the Electoral College for a state, you add the number of members in the House of Representatives to the number of Senators from that state.

In this case, the state has:

  • 14 members of the House of Representatives
  • 2 members of the Senate

So, the total number of electors is:

14 (House) + 2 (Senate) = 16

Therefore, the correct answer is B) 16.
