Actually csmusaret is correct we vote for electors who are members of the Electoral College who are empowered to elect the president.
Each State has an election to select delegates to its' electoral college. The Presidential election is a State by State election. It is not a National election. If it were Al Gore would have been elected in 2000. We have elections in every State, but we do not have National elections.
