There are concurrent state bills that would guarantee the majority of Electoral College votes, and thus the presidency, to the candidate who receives the most popular votes in the country. Its aim is to replace state winner-take-all laws for awarding electoral votes, without any change to the Constitution.
The plan, called the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact (NPVIC) has been in process since 2001, and has been adopted by 10 states and the District of Columbia. It would not become effective until adopted by states holding a majority of the electoral votes.

It is possible that a candidate could win the "national" popular vote total but lose the electoral vote total. However, the electoral vote of every state accurately reflects the popular vote within that state. A candidate could win the electoral votes in a large state such as California winning the state by a huge margin. However, the opposing candidate could win the electoral votes in other states because a majority of the voters in those states vote for the opposing candidate.

Pros: Ensures that the candidate with the most votes across the entire country wins the election, potentially reducing disparities between the popular vote and electoral college outcome. Cons: Could lead to campaigns focusing only on large population centers and neglecting smaller states, potentially disenfranchising voters in less populous areas.

the popular vote is by everybody. the electoral vote is by electoral colleges, which not everyone is in
1 answer
Electors vote before the total tally of popular votes is known because they are appointed to represent their respective states in the Electoral College. The purpose of the Electoral College is to formally elect the President and Vice President of the United States. Each state determines its own electors based on the popular vote in that state, so electors vote based on the outcome within their state, regardless of the national popular vote tally.

The popular vote on a national level does not determine who is elected. Each state is given a certain number of electoral college votes, and the electoral college will normally vote whoever won that states popular vote.
There is no laws saying all electoral college voters have to follow this procedure though. They can go against the popular vote, and chose someone who has not won by majority of votes.

After. The electors are supposed to vote in accordance with the popular vote in their state (or whatever method has been specified, but in practice it amounts to "winner take all" with respect to the popular vote results in nearly every state), so it would be impossible for them to vote until the popular vote results are known.
