Trump
Clinton
The 2016 United States presidential election in Iowa was held on November 8, 2016, as part of the 2016 General Election in which all 50 states plus The District of Columbia participated. Iowa voters chose electors to represent them in the Electoral College via a popular vote pitting the Republican Party's nominee, businessman Donald Trump, and running mate Indiana Governor Mike Pence against Democratic Party nominee, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and her running mate, Virginia Senator Tim Kaine.
Both parties' caucuses were held on February 1, 2016.
Donald Trump won the election in Iowa with 51.1% of the vote. Hillary Clinton received 41.9% of the vote. Trump carried Iowa by the largest margin of any Republican candidate since Ronald Reagan in 1980. Trump enjoyed the support of working-class whites in the agricultural industry, as well as the endorsements of Iowa's GOP establishment. A state that voted Democratic for Barack Obama in 2008 and 2012, the difference of 9.4% points was the largest winning margin for Trump in a state that had voted for Barack Obama.
