In terms of electoral votes, how many votes are allocated to Washington D.C.?

Washington D.C. is allocated three electoral votes in presidential elections. This allocation stems from the 23rd Amendment to the United States Constitution, ratified in 1961, which grants D.C. the right to participate in the Electoral College while treating it as if it were a state in terms of vote distribution, even though it is not a state. The total number of electoral votes for D.C. is equivalent to the number of electoral votes possessed by the least populous state, which also stands at three. Therefore, during presidential elections, Washington D.C. contributes three electoral votes to the total count, allowing its residents to have a say in the selection of the President and Vice President of the United States.
