2012 third parties/write-ins captured 1.85% of the vote, in 2016 due in large part to the heavily disliked major party candidates,  third parties/write-ins jumped to 6%.
States with >10% third party/write in votes were:

UT   27.0%  Mormon McMullin home state
ID   13.2%
VT   13.1%  Bernie Sanders write-ins
AK  12.2%  well its Alaska
WA  11.9%
NM 11.7%  Gary Johnson home state
OR  10.8%
WY  10.0%

An pretty even split between Red (3 states) and Blue (4 states)
