- The 2016 United States presidential election in Arkansas was held on Tuesday, November 8, 2016, as part of the 2016 United States presidential election in which all 50 states plus the District of Columbia participated. Arkansas voters chose electors to represent them in the Electoral College via a popular vote, pitting the Republican Party's nominee, businessman Donald Trump, and running mate Indiana Governor Mike Pence against Democratic Party nominee, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, and her running mate Virginia Senator Tim Kaine. Arkansas has six electoral votes in the Electoral College. Although Clinton once served as the First Lady of Arkansas for 12 years as the wife of then Governor of Arkansas Bill Clinton, Arkansas was considered to be a state Trump would win or otherwise a safe red state. Bill Clinton won the state twice in 1992 and 1996, but the state has trended Republican in every election since 2000. Trump won the state with 60.57% of the vote, and Hillary Clinton received 33.65% of the vote. The Republican candidate has carried Arkansas in every election since 2000. This is also the first election in which the state simultaneously voted for a Republican presidential candidate and an incumbent Republican Senate candidate. Additionally, Arkansas was one of eleven states that voted twice for Bill Clinton in 1992 and 1996 that Hillary Clinton lost in 2016. Trump's 60.57% share of the vote is tied with Mitt Romney's 60.57% in 2012, making both candidates' performances the best result for the Republicans in Arkansas since Richard Nixon in 1972. However, Trump bested Romney in terms of margin, winning by 26.92% versus Romney's 23.69%. The Prohibition Party candidate, James Hedges, also had the notable achievement of finishing third in Arkansas County, ahead of major third-party candidates Gary Johnson and Jill Stein, the only county in the country where he did so.
