The definition of electorate is “all of the people who are entitled to vote in an election”. That includes people who choose to not vote, to get a majority of that figure leave (or indeed remain) would need over 23 million votes.
On the final point, and to complete the circle, Parliament is sovereign. The people are not.

You are not a talking dictionary, I am well aware of what things mean, so stop being so patronising - please pack it in with the fiction, YOU are still wrong - nothing you say changes the fact the electorate voted for Brexit.
And your last point which is again wrong!!!
We gave parliament an instruction when they passed the question or "sovereign" back on to us to ask us either to leave or remain in the EU - The electorate told parliament we wanted to leave the EU. Again, nothing you say will change this so again, perhaps you should stop it with the fiction.
