Clinton has held several public offices, and also ran for president in 2008 and 2016. In 2008 she lost to [[Barack Obama]], but she won the democratic nomination in a controversial and contested primary fight over [[populist]] [[Bernie Sanders]] during the [[2016 Presidential Election]]. Although Clinton won the popular vote 65,853,516 (46.1%) to 62,984,825 (48.2%), Trump won the [[electoral college]] vote, 306 to 232, with the incomplete vote count reported.<ref>{{cite news|url=http://www.cnn.com/election/results|title=Election Results|accessdate=Nov. 12, 2016}}</ref>
