Hillary Clinton wins New Hampshire
Nearly one week after Election Day, Hillary Clinton has been declared the winner of New Hampshire and its four electoral votes.
Clinton beat Donald Trump in the state by about 2,700 votes, The Associated Press reports, and Trump's team declined to request a recount. With the win, Clinton has 232 electoral votes to Trump's 290; 270 are necessary to win the presidency. The final results are still not in from Michigan, which has 16 electoral votes. Clinton, who conceded to Trump on Nov. 9, currently leads Trump in the popular vote by about 780,000 ballots.
