Michigan Electoral Votes
How many electoral votes does Michigan have?


The electoral votes from Michigan 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.

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

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


Like every other state, Michigan has 2 Senators. Furthermore, Michigan currently has 14 congressional districts. Thus, Michigan has a total of 16 Representatives in Washington, D.C.

Therefore, the answer to the question "How many electoral votes does Michigan have?" is 16.
