Actually a majority of the voters that vote. In reality, there has not
been a president elected in the past 50yrs with a majority of eligable
voters. The 1996 election had only 49.6% of voting age population
turnout to vote. IN 2000 it was 50.1%. In 1960 over 65% of Voting age
Population voted. Voter turnouts of all voting age population in
national elections have dropped steadily since 1964.

Basically GW Bush was elected with about 30% of all voting age
population in this country.

If you want to research more try www.fec.gov. That is the Federal
Elections Commision.
