we should note though that for this theory to be truly valid , it should predict popular vote winner - i.e. Will of the people

Right, so you should compare candidates' results among voters they tried to appeal to. I.e. the electoral vote.

election set-pieces that highlight charisma the most like the debates are broadcast nationally to all voters.
