Hillary Clinton Predicts VP Harris and Governor Walz Will Win Popular Vote

Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton confidently predicted on Thursday that Vice President Kamala Harris and her running mate, Gov. Tim Walz, will win the popular vote in November and referenced her own popular vote victory in 2016.

Hillary Clinton, the former Secretary of State, expressed her confidence that Vice President Kamala Harris and her running mate, Governor Tim Walz, will secure the popular vote in the November elections. This prediction aligns with Clinton's own experience in 2016, where she emerged victorious in the popular vote.

During an interview on MSNBC's "Morning Joe," Clinton acknowledged the significance of winning the Electoral College despite the popular vote advantage. "I think that the challenge, as it has been for a number of elections now, is winning the Electoral College. I have no doubt that the Harris-Walz campaign, like my campaign, will win the popular vote, but I think, as we all know, that doesn’t get you the election. You’ve got to win 270 electoral votes," Clinton remarked.

Clinton emphasized the importance of Harris establishing a clear distinction between herself and former President Trump. She advised Harris to focus on the "choice" they present to the electorate. "This is a contest between freedom and oppression, between democracy and autocracy, between bringing people together and further dividing us, and that’s what has to be communicated every single day between now and the election," Clinton asserted.

Clinton also addressed the double standard she believes female candidates face. She pointed to the excessive scrutiny over Harris' policies while noting her own extensive policy platforms. "I had more policy than anybody had," she declared. "I gave speeches about it. It was on our website. I wrote a book with Tim Kaine about it. We had lots of policy. At the end of the day, that’s not what caused people to vote for me or against me, and I think the Harris campaign knows that."

Clinton emphasized that Harris' policies are readily available on the campaign website. She also commended MSNBC for highlighting the crucial stakes involved in the upcoming election. "I want to just add that I think you all do an excellent job of talking about the stakes. Not just the horse race, but the stakes of the election, and painting a picture for people about what Trump is promising to do," Clinton stated.

Clinton's media appearances have served to promote her recently released book, "Something Lost, Something Gained." She has consistently maintained that Harris and Walz possess the necessary experience and qualifications to lead the nation. By securing the popular vote, the Harris-Walz campaign will have a strong foundation for their electoral strategy.
