Lex Anteinternet: The 2016 Election: I didn't see that coming. . . like all of the rest of the pundits. It's been a wild election year. Yesterday, Donald Trum...The popular vote:
Trump: 47%: 59,611,678
Clinton: 48% 59,814,018
Johnson: 3% 4,058,500
Stein: 1% 1,213,103
Others: .07% 802,119
A disappointing performance for Stein, given that she was trying to riff of the popular Sanders. Not very impressive for Johnson either, whom some thought would do well. That's probably at least 3,000,000 votes off of Trump, however.
Trump becomes President with a minority of votes cast. Clinton took more, albeit only 200,000 more. An example, perhaps, of every vote counting, or not, depending upon your view.
