Could Hillary Win with the 3rd Least Votes of Any President?

Currently, the latest Real Clear Politics' average of polls with Clinton vs Trump plus the two candidates from the Libertarian and Green Party, has Hillary leading in every poll, with an average of just 41.5%.

In the history of this country, only 10 Presidents have won with less than 50% of the vote.  If Clinton should win with 41.5%, it would place her 3rd from the bottom in terms of the least voting percentage for any winning President.

This speaks volumes about this election.  An election with a potential winner that few in the country really want.  And, her percentages may continue to get worse following the latest revelations from the FBI report regarding her email server.
