Shouldn't the EU only have one vote in the UN???

As they join together they should loose their multiple votes.

Or shall we have the 50 states of the US each have a vote?

Thats a great point. I've often felt frustrated when the "hate america" crowd says things like how America uses more power than any other country or how we spend twice as much as any other nation on defense and for proof compare us to individual little countries like France, Germany, etc because typically if they compared the US to the EU, which has roughly equivalent population to the US, everything balances much more closeley.

<< Or should every one of the 50 [Sovereign] United States of America have a vote? >>

Good question.

But for the traitor, Lincoln.

Why not? There is a precedent: the USSR, Ukraine, and Belorussia all had votes in the UN when the latter two were parts of the former.
