Despite Winning Trump Twitted: Millions Of People Voted Illegally

The president - elect Donald Trump said on Sunday, without evidence, that "millions of people" voted "illegally" by Hillary Clinton and otherwise, had won the popular vote is an unprecedented accusation by a president-elect.


Trump won the Electoral College and therefore the White House, but the Democratic candidate takes you an advantage in the popular vote of nearly two million votes.

"In addition to winning the Electoral College, won the popular vote if the millions of people who voted illegally discounted," Trump wrote.





This is the first time that alleged electoral fraud in his own victory and no evidence of any widespread electoral fraud.

The transition team Trump did not respond to requests for comment Sunday afternoon.

Efforts count

Trump criticized the weekend counting the effort led by the Green Party, which has qualified as a "scam" . The Green Party filed a petition for recount in Wisconsin on Friday, after reports of possible discrepancies voting in areas that used paper ballots against those in which took place electronic voting.

Both the Clinton campaign and the White House have said they found no evidence that voting systems were hacked , despite Clinton's campaign he said Saturday it will join efforts to boost counts.

Sunday morning, President-elect launched a series of tweets recalling that the Democratic former candidate had accepted the outcome of the election.

"Hillary Clinton recognized the outcome of the election when I called just before and victory speech after the results came out. Nothing will change," Trump tweeted.









Then he remembered that during one of the debates, Clinton questioned doubt his acceptance of the outcome of the elections and, later, in his first speech after being defeated, she said she had to accept the results.

Trump electoral college

Trump has hesitated in supporting the electoral college. In 2012, he tweeted: "The electoral college is a disaster for democracy."

Since his election, he has been more appreciative.

"The Electoral College is actually genius that brings all states, including the smallest, at stake. The campaign is very different!" He tweeted about a week after the election.
