President-elect Joe Biden’s margin over President Trump in the nationwide popular vote is now more than 7 million votes and may continue to grow as several states continue counting votes, CNN reports.
Jennifer Rubin: “That margin is bigger than Massachusetts’ entire population; in fact, only 14 states have a population of more than 7 million. Biden’s popular vote margin by percentage (4.4 percent) far surpasses Obama’s 2012 victory over Mitt Romney.”
“Why is it important to emphasize the magnitude of Biden’s victory? Because, far from narrow, it represents the overwhelming verdict of the voters. If there is such a thing as a mandate, Biden has one.”
