According to a CNN/ORC poll, Hillary Clinton won 62% to 27%.

It's tough to say who won. Both candidates were pugnacious and spent a large part of the time calling their opponent a liar and delusional. Recent polls indicate that the greatest motivation of their respective supporters is more to prevent the opposing candidate from being elected than enthusiasm for their own candidate, so if either one "won" it would be whoever scared the most people about the idea of their opponent being elected.

(IMHO - the loser was the American public)
