At long last americans decide between clinton and trump
A historic moment! On November 8, 2016, Americans went to the polls to elect their 45th President. After a long and contentious campaign, the results were:
Donald J. Trump (Republican): 304 electoral votes Hillary Clinton (Democratic): 227 electoral votes
Trump, a businessman and reality TV star, won the presidency by securing a majority of the electoral votes, although Clinton received nearly 3 million more popular votes. The outcome was a surprise to many, as polls had suggested a narrow Clinton victory.
Trump's campaign focused on issues like immigration reform, trade, and national security, while Clinton's campaign emphasized her experience as a former First Lady, Senator, and Secretary of State, as well as her plans for healthcare reform and economic growth.
The election was marked by controversy, including allegations of Russian interference and concerns about Trump's temperament and fitness for office. Clinton's campaign was also dogged by controversy, including the use of a private email server while she was Secretary of State.
In the end, Trump's victory was seen as a significant upset, and it marked a major shift in American politics. His presidency was marked by a series of controversies, including investigations into Russian interference in the election and allegations of obstruction of justice.
