Alabama Electoral Votes
How many electoral votes does Alabama have?


The electoral votes from Alabama and the other states are used to elect a President and Vice President every four years. Whichever Presidential candidate gets the majority of the electoral votes becomes the President.

Alabama is given one electoral vote for each Alabama congressional district, in addition to one electoral vote for each of the two Alabama Senators. In other words, the number of electoral votes Alabama has depends on how many Representatives Alabama has in Washington, D.C.

The number of Senators Alabama has does not change, but the number of Alabama congressional districts is based on the last census.


Like every other state, Alabama has 2 Senators. Furthermore, Alabama currently has 7 congressional districts. Thus, Alabama has a total of 9 Representatives in Washington, D.C.

Therefore, the answer to the question "How many electoral votes does Alabama have?" is 9.
