Answer: it shows the level of sovereignty the government enjoyed to rule the people

Step-by-step explanation:

The popular will is the concept of majority rule in a democracy which is based on the fact that government can only be established due to the majority of votes given to the political party by the electorate in an election. Democracy is said to be a government that allows everybody the right to franchise in an election once such a person has attained the legal age to vote and be voted for in an election. In a democracy the popular will is important because it shows the sovereignty the people has given the government which has allowed them to rule the people till the next election. It is said that, sovereignty belong to the people, this is expressed when the government in power win an election by having the absolute majority of the votes cast by the electorate to becomes the winner in an election.
