Abstract:
On November 8, 2016, Donald Trump received 304 electoral votes to Hilary Clinton’s 227 votes. However, Clinton won both the popular vote and a higher percentage of victory than her opponent. Clinton received 65,794,399 (48.2%) of the vote to Trump’s 62,955,202 (46.1%) of the vote, a difference of nearly 2.9 million votes [1]. While this was not the first presidential candidate to lose an election by winning the popular vote, it was a loss by the largest popular margin of any candidate in an election.
