Best Answer

The number of electoral votes for each state is equal to the sum of its number of Senators and its number of Representatives in the U.S. House of Representatives. Based on the 2010 Census, there are 11 members of the U.S. House of Representatives from Virginia and 2 members of the U.S. House of Representatives from Rhode Island. Therefore, Virginia has 13 electoral votes and Rhode Island has 4 electoral votes .

Why did Rhode Island refuse to send delegation to the convention?

Rhode Island's leaders did not want a national government interfering in its affairs and opposed the creation of a strong, central government. A Rhode Island delegate quoted, "I will not have anything to do with revising the Articles of Confederation. They are fine as they are. Rhode Island won't be bossed about by its larger, more populous neighbors." Rhode Island feared of Constitutional Convention's newly proposed system that would be detrimental to Rhode Island's economy.
