The popular vote is when the people vote for the president. in actuallity the people don't elect the president. the electorial college do. they win states with the popular vote then the delegates from those states vote for the candidate their state chooses.
Popular vote is the overall percentage of the population who voted for a presidential candidate. Electoral vote is how many electors in the electoral college vote for the candidate. Each state is entitled to a number of electors, equal to its number of congressmen (Number of Reps. + 2). The candidate which gains the most votes in the state will gain the votes of the State's electors. The popular vote determines how the electors will vote.
The candidate who receives the most electoral votes wins the presidency. It is possible to lose the popular vote but win the electoral vote to be elected president.
Based on the popular vote in the state
When parties receive the proportion of the legislators corresponding to their percentage of the vote, winners are said to be determined by the Electoral College or Electoral Vote. Each state has a certain percentage of the allotted popular vote.
No, just the opposite is true. Of the 57 elections including 2012, in all but two (maybe three, depending on how you interpret 1876), the winner was determined by the electoral vote. Regarding the two cases in which the House of Representatives elected the president, the electoral vote counts determined from between/among whom they voted.
The electoral vote of every state accurately reflects the popular vote within that state. Therefore, every elector in the Electoral College is expected to cast the electoral vote for the candidate who won the popular vote in that elector's state.
