Top 10 Most Interesting Statistics in the 2016 United States Electoral College

The Top Ten

1 Donald Trump Wins Pennsylvania

For a state that is usually blue, I never would of predicted it falling as a red state.

2 Michigan, Minnesota, New Hampshire, and Arizona Were the Only States Undecided Who Had Won Those Officially.

3 The Republicans Gain More Control Over Democrats of Both the Senate and the House of Represenatives

4 There Were 12 States with New Governors, 6 Republican, 6 Democrats Elected

5 The District of Colombia Gave Trump a Total of 4% Electoral Votes

The total was 3, but what makes this interesting is that it's the HQ of the the white House. Sure I knew she had that one, but I expected a 99 to 1 differential lol.

6 67% of the Non College Educated Whites Voted for Trump

7 24% of Young Latinos Voted for Trump.

I expected a much lower number a little surprising honestly.

8 Hillary won the popular vote, but Trump won the electoral college.

9 About 39% Would Be Optimistic About a Trump Presidency, and 43% About Another Clinton in the White House.

A majority of people would rather have neither as president.

10 Donald Trump, Not Only Won the Primary, but Also Won the Popular Vote as Well.

The Contenders

11 Hillary Won 54% of Voters Age Between 18 to 29

Yes that is a passing margin, but Trump also had 37%, not exactly a blow away look, but again what's there is thrown out there.

12 Trump Has Won States Not Won by Republicans in 30 Years.

13 Virginia Was the Only Southern State Won by Clinton
