Polling reflects popular vote/votes among non officials.

WikiAnswers - What presidents lost the popular vote but won the electoral college vote
Just a quick reference of past presidents who have lost the popular vote but won the electoral college.

We've had 43 presidents and only 4 of them have won the electoral college but not the popular vote. Mr. Obama's "guaranteed" victory is slipping further and further away.

Going on History, if he loses the popular vote it seems unlikely that he will win the electoral college as well.
