Answer:

By casting a ballot for the presidential candidate of their choosing, voters in each state select the electors. The winning slate is the one with the most support. Only Nebraska and Maine don't use this winner-take-all strategy. The electoral votes are distributed proportionally in those states. Delegates are only given to the candidate who receives the most preference votes in a winner-take-all election. Those who receive at least 15% of the vote receive proportional representation delegates.
