The electoral college from each state. Each states gets the same amount of votes as how many representatives they have and senators they have. California, for example, has 53 representatives and so it gets 55 electoral votes with its two senators. the people voting is a winner take-all system. When the people's votes are tallied the state gives all its electoral votes to the candidate the people choose. So if the majority of the people in California vote democrat then the democratic party gets 55 electoral votes. Whichever candidate gets at least one more than half the total electoral votes possible becomes president.
