The 2016 United States presidential election in New York 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. New York 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. New York has 29 electoral votes in the Electoral College. New York remained a blue state, with Clinton winning with 59.01% of the vote, while Trump received 36.52% of the vote, a 22.49% Democratic margin of victory. However, Trump won more counties, taking 45 counties statewide compared to Clinton's 17. Trump also flipped 19 counties that had voted for Barack Obama in 2012, tied with Minnesota for the third-most counties flipped in any state; only Iowa and Wisconsin had more. Clinton received a smaller vote share than outgoing President Barack Obama had in 2012, while Trump improved on Mitt Romney's performance despite losing the state by a large margin. New York was the home state of both major party nominees, though Clinton was born and raised in Chicago. Trump was born and raised in New York City and has been long associated with the state. Clinton has been a resident of Chappaqua in suburban Westchester County since 1999 and represented the state in the U.S. Senate from 2001 to 2009. Trump became the second consecutive major-party presidential nominee to lose his home state by over 20 points, after Mitt Romney, who lost his home state of Massachusetts by a similar margin in 2012. Before Romney, the last nominee this happened to was Herbert Hoover in his home state of California during 1932. Trump also became the fourth winning presidential candidate to lose his state of residence, after James K. Polk, Woodrow Wilson and Richard Nixon. The election also marks the most recent cycle in which Trump would be on the presidential ballot as a legal resident of New York state; according to court filings, he registered Palm Beach, Florida, as his "primary residence" in 2019. He thus became the first major presidential candidate since Nixon to have New York as his state of residence during his first presidential nomination but register another home state for his next presidential bid. Trump is also the first Republican presidential candidate since George H. W. Bush in 1992 to carry Suffolk County, as well as the first to win the White House without carrying Dutchess County since Ulysses S. Grant in 1872. This is also the first time since 1988 in which New York did not vote for the same candidate as neighboring Pennsylvania. As of the 2020 presidential election, this is the last time a major candidate lost their home state, as Trump changed his home state to Florida for the 2020 election, while Joe Biden would also go on to safely carry his home state of Delaware in 2020.

En Nueva York los votantes eligieron electores para que los representen en el Colegio Electoral a través de una votación popular con los dos candidatos principales del partido que afirman que Nueva York es su estado de origen, el candidato del Partido Republicano Donald Trump, y su compañero el Gobernador de Indiana Mike Pence contra la candidata del Partido Demócrata, ex secretaria de Estado Hillary Clinton y su compañero, el senador por Virginia, Tim Kaine. Hillary Clinton obtuvo en Nueva York un 59,01 % de los votos, mientras que Donald Trump recibió el 36,52 %, habiendo un 22,49 % de margen de victoria demócrata. El estado de Nueva York siguió siendo un sólido estado azul en las elecciones de 2016, aunque Hillary Clinton recibió una cuota de voto más pequeña que el presidente Obama tuvo en las 2012, mientras que Donald Trump mejoró ligeramente el rendimiento de Mitt Romney. Aun así, a pesar de haber nacido y crecido en Nueva York, y durante mucho tiempo se asoció con el estado, Trump perdió decisivamente el voto popular. (es) |
