The legislature always picks the popular vote winner in Vermont, see 2010, 2002.

Cuyahoga going for Kasich was a definite surprise.

Ige under 50% statewide in Hawaii, ever so barely, came as a shock to me.  Also surprised at Kitzhaber under 50% in Oregon (although, in retrospect, I shouldn't have been).

As for Mead, he won Teton county, with just over 50%, too.  It looks like Albany was the Democratic holdout in Wyoming this year.  Democrats' margins in similar counties like Blaine ID, San Miguel CO, Pitkin CO, etc look pretty safe.  This is how the Utah counties voted in their congressional races.

Summit, UT-01
McAleer (D) - 55% 5,186
Bishop (R) - 40% 4,188

Otherwise county sweep for Bishop, the incumbent.

Grand, UT-03
Chaffetz (R) - 47% 1,615
Wonnacott (D) - 43% 1,460

Chaffetz took every county.  Perhaps moreso than Teton, WY, Grand is the most-Republican leaning of the resort counties.
