Washington (AFP) – Hillary Clinton is now more than two million votes ahead of President-elect Donald Trump in the popular vote count for the US presidential elections, a tally compiled by the Cook Political Report showed Wednesday.
The Democratic candidate’s 1.5 percent lead in the popular vote makes no difference to the outcome of the November 8 election, which Trump won by taking a majority of electoral votes. Clinton conceded the following day.
But the former secretary of state’s popular vote lead continues to grow.
She has received 64,227,373 votes to Trump’s 62,212,752 million, according to the Cook Political Report’s latest tally, which was compiled from official sources.
It is the second time this century that a Democrat has won the popular vote but lost the presidential election.
In 2000, vice president Al Gore lost to George W. Bush despite winning nearly 544,000 more votes than his Republican rival.
The Supreme Court ultimately decided that election, pushing Bush over the top in electoral votes by giving him the win in the contested state of Florida.
“Clinton leads Trump by over two million in popular vote”
bwahahahahahahaha!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
thats popular “dead vote”……………
Bullshit
You can’t count Franken Berry, Martin Martian, Johnny’s dead gramma, Juan the illegal…etc, etc
They’re milking this election drama for all it’s worth.
The liberals won’t give up. They’re so accustomed to controlling this country via the media, they just can’t accept that something happened that they didn’t orchestrate.
They forget that there’s a power stronger than they are, and they’re having a hard time believing that nobody trusts their media anymore.
How many were illegals, dead and fictitious votes?
“But the former secretary of state’s popular vote lead continues to grow.”
With plenty of fertilizer (bull sh#t) and ‘liberally’ drenched with snake oil, almost ANYTHING will ‘grow’.
They may just install the evil commie jewb#tch after all.
Anything is possible with these psychopaths.
