Can someone in America tell me what it means when someone "Wins the Popular Vote"? Is this different to the actual vote?

Following the news on TV and this keeps being mentioned....

Ahh okay I see thanks - so a person could win the "popular" vote of the people, but not the final vote - but in this case it looks like he won both

Not that we are obsessed with CR around here *Whistle* but after 12 years on WDC I have now hit 800 CR *Bigsmile* -----Am I a bid sad that this makes me happy *Crazy* *Pthb*

Funnily enough my 800th came from collecting trinkets! *Trinket*

Hey, I'll be hitting 600 soon, but that's because of the weekly streaks added this year. As a newbie with that opportunity, I've earned way faster than those here longer than me... Which feels somewhat unfair sometimes, but *BigSmile*

these last couple of weeks - I have neglected it a bit owing to the birthday celebrations! Back on track now *Bigsmile*

Don't forget, if you are "in danger" of losing your 7 day forum streak, you can always post something in the 7/7 forum. There are no prompts, and if you don't know what to say you can share something about what is happening right now in your corner of the world, what the weather is like, where you are going on your next holiday, or share a link to something interesting on WDC *Smile* *Heartp*
