Answer:

Option D. Most citizens would not have access to information to help them make an informed decision.

Explanation:

The popular vote does not elect the president. That power falls on an electoral college of 538 electors that come from the 50 states that deposit the votes on the candidate who won in his state. The president is elected by more than 270 electoral votes. All of this because most citizens would not have access to information to help them make an informed decision.
