The Popular Vote

Published



Drudge has the total votes cast in last night’s Democratic contests as they now stand:

TOTAL VOTES CAST Clinton: 50.2% (7,347,971) Obama: 49.8% (7,294,851)

Yet Obama won more delegates, and more states. Still, I somehow doubt that all those liberals who whined (and still whine) about how Gore won the popular vote in 2000 will have much to say about the outcome this time around. We live in a banana republic when the outcome is unfavorable, and when the left gets the result it wants? Call it Change.
