Clinton’s lead now exceeds 2.8 million votes (more than 2.1 percent of the total vote) and continues to grow.

Respondents’ correct understanding of the popular vote depended a great deal on partisanship.
A large fraction of Republicans — 52 percent — said Trump won the popular vote, compared with only 7 percent of Democrats and 24 percent of independents.
Among Republicans without any college education, the share was even larger: 60 percent, compared with 37 percent of Republicans with a college degree.
