      Ah, thank you very much. You know, we all know US-ians love their appreviations, but without the right context they are just confusing.

        I just figured it would be obvious in the context of “person who won the 2016 US presidential popular vote” mb.

          Somehow it is annoying for a lot people when appreviations are used and people expect to know the context.
