Yes thats right.After her win in PA she now has more votes than any other democratic candidate has ever gotten,including Obama.

According to real clear politics the vote count is-Hillary has received 15,095,663 votes to Sen. Obama's 14,973,720, a margin of more than 120,000 votes. ABC News reported this morning that "Clinton has pulled ahead of Obama" in the popular vote.

I can't wait until this is over so we can move on to the real election. This whole thing is like a never ending nightmare. And now they're headed my way and I'm going to have to hear/see even more of the 2 of them. *sigh* I need a bourbon.

Pour me one too Moggy and make mine a double

Why not give Obama the undecideds AT LEAST!

This fuzzy arithmetic gives Obama 0 for Michigan. Give him the undecideds and tell me who has more votes.

I've just googled to find the number of voters in the Primaries in 2004, and the total votes in the general in November. I can't seem to find it.

Where is that 7 year old when I need her.

The democrats have only themselves to blame for Fla and Mich--I'm sure those "phantom" voters are ticked off at being disenfranchised. Quick dems, find a way to blame Bush!

But Lori, the people in Florida and Michigan will be voting in November so officially they do count.

That means Obama has more votes than any candidate in history. Thanks for the news, I did not know that.

Clinton ahead in popular vote if you don't give Obama a single vote in MI and give Hillary 55%? I am happy to learn that's the only way they can beat him.

I think they figured Michigan with only the votes she received.At least at one of the sites I was looking at earlier(dont remember which one) figured it with Obama getting all the unconfirmed,which he would have gotten less than that as some people liked Edwards.

checked realclearpol numbers and others. Obama 0 for MI, Clinton 55%.

Not worth us supporters arguing about. Let them sort it out. I think at the end of the day whichever one of them comes on top on the pop votes will be by 100 thousand or less. Out of 30+ million, that's statistically insignificant. They are politicians, not statisticians and either of them will run with it.

Didn't President Gore receive more votes than any other candidate in history? ; )

(that one is a gift for you Alan)
