Hillary Clinton Campaign Press Release - There's Only One Candidate in This Race With More Votes Than Donald Trump
1.2 million more, to be exact.
After competing across the country in 36 states and territories (and counting!), Hillary Clinton has built a nearly insurmountable lead when it comes to both delegates and popular votes.
She's also the only candidate—Democrat or Republican—who has received more votes than Republican frontrunner Donald Trump.
There are a lot of reasons why Hillary should be the Democratic nominee and our next president. But the numbers alone make one thing clear: She is the only candidate who is ready to take on the Republicans in November.
