During the campaign, he did not offer much in the way of a second-term agenda, beyond small-gauge proposals that were designed by his strategists more to appeal to specific groups of vot­ ers than to provide a blueprint for governing. Rather than talk about Republicans in Congress, Clinton dwelled Wednesday on his own victory over Bob Dole. Despite the president's dominance of most regions of the country, with 379 electoral votes (270 are needed to win), he won 49 percent of the popular vote—falling short ofthe 50 percent he had hoped for to claim a mandate from the American voters. Dole drew 41 percent, with 8 percent for Ross Perot.
