Popular sovereignty is allowing the people to decide on the issue themselves by voting instead of having the government decide. In the US it was used by the government in the territories to the West because of the intense issue of slavery. The people could decide if they were a slave state or not, but because of a corruption in the voting Bloody Kansas erupted and the fighting did not stop until the Civil war broke out just a bit later.
