How Hillary Clintons 1.4 Million Popular Vote Lead Broke RecordsPublished 9:12 pm EST, November 18, 2016 Updated 6:35 am EST, November 19, 2016 By Jessica McBride
Hillary Clintons popular vote lead over president-elect Donald Trump has grown to more than 1.4 million votes, and its smashing records.
Clinton is number 3 in all-time presidential popular vote totals in United States history, and her tally is still growing, largely because of uncounted ballots remaining in blue California. As of November 18, more than 2.8 million votes remained unprocessed in that state. No candidate in American history has ever won this many popular votes and lost the presidency.
Clintons margin over Trump is greater than the margin in multiple historic elections, including since 1900.

Because...... Bernie.
The false narratives repeated here daily make me sick. This was stolen, but we will hear negatives ad nauseam about her instead of the third party enablers and hackers.
Some are so good at eating their own just so they can feel a false superiority.

Bloomberg would have been elected.

election was stolen?
If so, I am having some serious doubts about this nations ability to protect us from foreign and domestic miscreants.

Counting the ways is the difficulty part, seeing the fact is the easy part.

So her totals will still be rising.
Bottom line: The Trumpenfuhrer has no mandate!

and still not be President. The nation will pay the consequences.
