9. I screwed up the OP, originally, but you got it. |
|
And with the exception of my mistake, that is exactly how the Jeopardy "answer" was phrased.

4. How could she receive the most votes nationwide? |
|
She was on the ballot only in California.
I think the OP was very strangely worded.

8. It was meant to be a trick question, I guess. |
|
Obviously there are only two offices that Americans vote on "nationwide".

10. It means who got the most votes, period |
|
After all, no other position other than president/vice president runs a national campaign in this country.
But if you look at total number of votes, it makes sense that a senator in CA would win the third highest number of votes in an election with no popular third party candidates.
