Has anyone ever won the presidency from a state lower than the six [6] electoral votes from Bill Clinton's Arkansas?



No winning candidate has been from that small of a state, but trends can be broken.

Actually, Franklin Pierce came from NH, which had 5 EVs in 1852 and now has 4 EVs. Also, Calvin Coolidge was born in VT, which now has 3 EVs.

I'm sorry, I stand corrected.
