President-elect Donald J. Trump is on track to win the popular vote, securing over 72.6 million votes against Kamala Harris's approximately 68 million votes, marking a historic Republican win.
The last Republican presidential candidate to win more votes than his opponent was George W. Bush in 2004, creating a significant political milestone for the GOP this election.
Pollsters initially expected Kamala Harris to win the popular vote based on previous election patterns, but Trump's success in the popular vote is a major shift in voter trends.
Despite previous cases where Republican candidates lost the popular vote and won the Electoral College, Trump's potential popular vote victory signifies a broader rejection of Democratic policies.
