I'm gonna be posting facts as I find them here, so forgive me if these facts have nothing to do with each other.

Trump was the first Republican win the presidency without winning:
  • Charleston County, SC, since 1956
  • Anne Arundel County, MD since 1924
  • Fort Bend County, TX since 1928
  • Orange County, CA since CA was founded in 1850

The last county to have a tie between two candidates was Ferry County, Washington, in the 1988 Presidential General Election.


Not quite. In 1992, there were two tied counties:


Morris County, KS (between Bush and Perot)

Ware County, GA (Between Clinton and Bush)
