Trump tweets about ‘serious voter fraud’ in 3 states

http://thehill.com/blogs/ballot-box/307626-trump-claims-serious-voter-fraud-in-3-states



.................................................................Clinton won all the three states Trump singled out on Sunday night. In California, Clinton bested Trump by more than 3 million votes, taking 61.6 percent to his 32.8 percent. In Virginia, she won by 185,689 votes, or 49.9 percent to 45 percent. The margin in New Hampshire was much closer, with some 2,700 votes separating the two.

The claim that people voted illegally has gained traction in conservative circles after being publicized by controversial Infowars radio host Alex Jones, who published an article earlier this month with the headline, "Report: 3 million votes in presidential election cast by illegal aliens."
