The smallest winning margin by percentage in a state is, unsurprisingly, FL in 2000, where Bush won by less than 1/100th of one percent.

The smallest winning margin by vote total in a state is 4 votes; in 1832 Henry Clay defeated Andrew Jackson in MD by 19,160 votes to 19,156 votes. The runner-up is...also MD, where Theodore Roosevelt defeated Alton Parker by 51 votes (though Parker actually won most of the states electoral votes).

Any idea how far down each list New Mexico 2000 would rank?
