Also only one state in 2012 was carried by plurality: Florida.

In 2008, Montana, Missouri, Indiana, and North Carolina were decided by pluralities.

In 2004, Wisconsin, New Mexico, and Iowa were decided by pluralities.

In 2000, Oregon (this seems really weird in 2017, huh?), New Mexico, Minnesota, Iowa, Wisconsin, Florida, New Hampshire, and Maine were decided by pluralities.

Clinton barely broke 50% in Oregon, so it was almost a plurality there again.

Actually, Obama got just over 50% of the vote in Florida:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_presidential_election_in_Florida,_2012
