The first Tuesday in November of every 4th year is an the election day. However, the President of the United States is not elected through a popular election. Each state has electoral votes equal to their representation in Congress and then each state casts all of it's electoral votes for the candidate which won the popular vote in that state. Two states, Nebraska and Maine, split their electoral vote as a percentage of the popular vote. Presidents have been elected without winning the popular vote, including John Quincy Adams and most recently, George W Bush.
