Donald Trump
Republican presidential candidate, Donald
Trump, scored a record 13,000,000 votes in the primaries.
This surpassed the record set in 2000 by former President,
George W. Bush. Trump's top rival, Democrat, Hillary
Clinton, took a much longer time to achieve the required
amount of delegates to become the presumptive nominee, via
votes in the primaries and did not score as many votes as
Trump. Clinton also experienced a slump in primary votes,
down 25% from her 2008 campaign bid. What will this spell
for Clinton in the general election.
Hillary Clinton
Trump has been making incendiary comments in
the press, but is now trying to repair ties with Hispanics
and blacks, whom he offended (some still aren't buying it).
The mere fact Trump received that many primary votes reveals
he has a sizeable audience. The question is will they be
enough to get him in office. Clinton hopes not. However,
Trump is using the criminal investigation into Clinton's
behavior at the State Department, which saw her break the
law and endanger national security, via maintaining a
private, unprotected email server, in conducting national
business, to tell the nation she is unfit to be president.
The server contained top secret information and was quickly
hacked by the communist block, among others. Trump has been
painting Clinton as "weak" and incompetent ever since.

nominee Mitt Romney’s and 2008 nominee John McCain’s primary
election vote totals by late in April according to Politico
