Hillary actually won the popular vote, if you count Michigan – even if you give Obama the “undecided” votes. However, according to Real Clear Politics, officials didn’t release the numbers in Iowa, Nevada, Washington & Maine. Those states would likely give the edge to Obama, unless you count Michigan and don’t give Obama the “undecided.”
So if you do the Democratic thing and only count actual votes for actual candidates, Hillary wins. She flat out wins.

- the WINNER is the team that wins the most games.
Not the one that got the most runs.
Obama won the most games. Period.
If Hillary actually cared about what the public wanted she would not have been in an undemocratic party in the first place.
She apparently got the popular vote, which again was denied by the DNC.
She and McCain are so kissy-faced to each other - she doesn't want Obama to win any more than McCain does.
“She can be Prom Queen....Hurray!!”
Visualizing Sissy Spacek in “Carrie”.
I don't mean any disrespect, but why give Obama any votes for Michigan at all. The man took his name off the Michigan ballet. He can't cry foul when the choice to take his name off the ballet was his own.
Hillary could have taken her name off the ballet as well but she left it on. To give Obama anything in Michigan when his name was not on the ballet, by his own choice, makes him selected not elected.
Hey, the primary rules were set up and agreed upon by everyone. Mi and FL Dem leadership knew the rules. The willfully broke the rules and made the Dem voters suffer the consiquences. Sucks. So sorry. But if the Dems count MI and FL in full, it sets up the precident that no one needs to follow the rules because there are no meaningful consiquences. And if that happens to the Dems, some piss poor Repub leadership in some state will follow that precident and do their own thing too.
Blame the MI and FL Dem leadership for disenfranchising the Dem voters. Sucks. As Glen Beck said: “Too bad.”
If I remember correctly, didn’t Bush Senior win the popular vote against Clinton?
(My memory doesn’t work much any longer)
It was eerie how the MSM jumped on the Obama bandwagon early, and turned him into Teflon man, while making sure everything stuck to Hillary.
Heck, it was surreal.
From the perspective of a Democrat, absolutely. That is a basic principle of the Democratic party that everyone, including convicted criminals, illegal aliens, or even dead people should have the right to vote without any verification.
Why give the filthy stinking witch any votes when by her own choice she stated that the election would not count, and agreed not to campaign there?
Why give the filthy stinking witch any votes in Michigan when her name was the only one on the ballot?
This isn't the Soviet Union.
I am utterly amazed how many people here on FR underestimate the danger that the Klintoons pose. Obama is a bumbling buffoon. He can't win. The filthy banshee is the second coming of Adolf Hitler.
“How many of Hitlery votes are Republican crossovers from Rush Chaos!!???”
How many Obama votes are Republican crossovers trying to stop Hillary?
And assuming his efforts had much effect, they worked perfectly. Not enough to give Hillary the nomination, but enough to cast doubt on the Democrat nomination and to highlight the faults in their process and to draw out the process until possibly late August.
Good point!! A really skewed election!!
The term “Popular Vote” is an excuse invented by losers.
“You simply cannot count Michigan without giving Obama the Uncommitted.”
And John Edwards got no votes in Michigan? Unlikely... He took second in Iowa with 30% of the vote.
“How many of Hitlery votes are Republican crossovers from Rush Chaos!!???”
How many Obama votes are Republican crossovers trying to stop Hillary?”
Here in the NJ Primary, I became a Rat in order to stop evil. I told the poll workers, let me think about this. (As an independent I could go either way.)
After giving it a couple of minutes thought I realized my vote for Romney would not impact McCain here. So I said out loud I’m thinking of voting to stop evil.
The primary threat and greater evil at that moment was Shrillary.
Thus considering the time of the NJ primary, I voted for Obama.
Now we have to unite and stop the other marxist Saul Alinsky acolyte.
Yeah, right. They ought to count for at least three fifths.
Actually that's a very good point. I was one of them. First time in my life that I ever voted in a Rat primary. I correctly realized that Obama was much less a threat than the filthy stinking "womyn" beast. I am sure that there were many more like me.
She did not win the popular vote. Washington state DID have a non binding primary that went with the caucus. These are not imaginary votes. “The people who voted” were not only caucus goers.
Oh, and by the way, what ever happened to the investigation of New Hampshire that was to find out how Hillary won there when EVERY SINGLE PRE ELECTION POLL, taken right up to election day, had her losing? At that time, if you recall, everyone knew that if she was to lose 3 in a row early — Iowa, NH and SC, she would be finished and she knew she would lose Iowa and SC.
SOMETHING was done in New Hampshire. Every pollster in the nation knows it. They can be wrong 5%, but they were all wrong almost 15%. Completely absurd, and she got away with it.
