Elroy, > Just because Obama got 429,000 more votes than Hillary in Cook County doesn't mean that that is the "source" of his lead in the national popular vote total.

How about in Hillary's "home" state of New York?

Hillary probably got 429,000 more votes than Obama somewhere, and you could just as easily say that that place (wherever it is) is the reason Obama isn't twice as far ahead than he actually is.

And you would be right in saying that, just as your would be right in saying that Cook County is the source of much of Obama's lead.
