CO is now going to allocate it's electoral vote to the winner of the national popular vote.

What happens if the winner of the CO popular vote loses the national popular vote?
The Democratic Presidential Nominee wins the popular vote in CO but loses the national popular vote.
How many electoral votes in CO will the Democratic Presidential Nominee will receive and How many electoral votes in CO will Trump/Pence-R will receive?
The Democratic Presidential Nominee gets all of CO 9 electoral votes if they win both the national and CO state popular vote.
The Democratic Presidential Nominee gets 2 electoral votes for winning the CO popular vote plus the electoral votes in CO-1,CO-2,CO-6,and CO-7= 6 ev. If Trump/Pence-R wins the national popular vote but loses the popular vote in CO, they will receive electoral votes in CO-3,CO-4,and CO-5.= 3ev.
