According to new figures released by The Associated Press on Saturday, Clinton received more than 1.5 million votes more than her Republican rival.
As of Saturday, Clinton had received 63,390,669 votes, while Trump received 61,820,845 votes -- a difference of 1,569,824, according to The AP.
Rounded off to whole numbers, that translates to 48 percent vs. 47 percent.

It DOESN’T matter if she won the raw vote by 1 vote or 10 Million. It’s irrelevant, we live in a democratic republic not a democracy... If folks are too stupid to know their civics that’s on them.
If you want to talk numbers we can. Hillary got 1.3 M more votes in Cali than Trump and 800k more in Mass than Trump... Now most likely this is due to the Nevertrumps and the GOPe more than anything. But again who cares? Sure the Nevertrumps and GOPe could have run a better ground game in those states and not lost them by such margins had they been on board from day one instead of fighting the inevitable. But end of the day Trump wasn’t going to win either of them, so who cares?
Tough hop, Hillary.
She lost folks. Time to move on and accept President-Elect, Trump
Are unscrupulous election officials manufacturing more Hillary votes to create more pressure to either elect Hillary via the E.C. or eliminate the E.C. altogether?
Combined General and Maryland “Freak State” PING!
According to new figures released by The Associated Press on Saturday …Automatic zero credibility. Never mind the worst form of argumentum ad verecundiam where one ascribes false authority deliberately.
There are people who hate Republicans enough to think that no matter what a Democrat does, they are inherently more righteous than the Republican. That, as rediculous as it may sound, is the mentality heavily and deeply ingrained in plenty of people’s minds, it is not about liking Hillary, it is about hating Trump, or simply hating the idea of a non-Democrat winning an election at all. I actually appreciate the electoral college, because that is what small states were afraid of back during the Constitution being drafted and ratified. They were scared that more populated states like New York could bully them around through having the vast majority of the population in them.
Trump played to win the EC, not the popular vote.
Trump never visited CA. If he’d had a few rallies out there and in a couple of other blue states, he could have upped his share of the vote in those states.
And Republicans in decidedly blue states would have been more enthused about casting a vote if they knew it would mean something.
Unlike ABC, Trump understood that the election was not based on the popular vote. Had it been, Trump would have campaigned differently.
Popular vote tallies are like climate “change”.
Welcome to the dustbin of irrelevancy.
Yep! so what?
that’s like the loser of a chess game saying..
BUT!! I had more pieces at the end!
um... that wasn’t the object of the game, and the entire game would have been played differently had that been the goal.
This BS is being pushed by the fake media, so we can be sure that it’s false. It must be based on illegal voting, voting machine fraud, manipulation of election results in Dem controlled districts.
The fake media will never do an in depth study of vote fraud because they live by fraud. Hopefully, we will get a scientific analysis by comparing paper ballots to machines (in comparable demographic districts), and determining if there were any “fractional” votes.
California has two Senators.
Rhode Island has two Senators.
WAA, it’s not fair, unless you live in Rhode Island that is.
Oh wait. Illegals don't have Social Security numbers. So their votes would add zero to the total.
Of course, all 4 of their Senators are execrable Communists.
There are at least 30 million illegals and, by most reliable estimates, about 15% of them voted anyway, especially in states like California and New York where requirements are notoriously loosey-goosey. How many of those 4.5 million illegal alien votes went to Hillary?
Trump didn’t even try to get votes in California. If we had a popular vote, the Campaign would have been run in a completely different manner.
I don’t care if Hillary won the popular vote or not...
She conceded. That makes the vote count irrelevant. It’s over, she threw in the towel, get over it.
Clinton is not winning the popular vote. She will finish at just under 48%. That means 52%, a majority of the popular vote, voted against her.
And LSU outgained us 423-270 last Saturday.
