Respuesta :

Answer: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.
