Hillary is ahead in the popular vote |
|
Just so we're clear on the math: Hillary is ahead in the popular vote amoung people who voted for her. That's how you're supposed to calculate these things.
Hillary has been very clear that people who do not vote for her don't really count - caucus states, small states, states that were red in the last election, and of course people who drink lattes, people who have some form of higher education and, obviously, black voters and young people.
So now that we're clear on who does and doesn't count it becomes pretty clear.
Amoung people who support Hillary, Hillary is way ahead in the popular vote: the people have spoken
Learn the math Obama supporters!

3. Chuck Todd the REAL math guy says there are 6 different ways of calculating popular vote |

In 2 ways clinton is ahead and 4 ways Obama is ahead. However, according to Chuck Todd Hillary is doing it for the sake of history in case Obama loses the GE since it is meaningless for this primary.
However,it seems a little more complicated then plugging the numbers that Terry or Icke says into a calculator.
