In which type of us election is it possible for the winning candidate to get fewer popular votes than the opposing candidate

The correct answer is E)Presidential elections.

The presidential election is not determined by popular vote. Rather, it is determined by a system known as the electoral college. The electoral college system involves each state having a certain number of electoral votes roughly based on their population size. In this system, states with larger populations have more electoral votes.

In the electoral college, a candidate must receive 270 electoral votes in order to become president. If a candidate reaches this threshold they win, regardless of the popular vote results.

All of the other elections mentioned in the answer choices are determined by popular vote.
