Data Points: Largest and Smallest Margins of Victory for Barack Obama and John McCain
Posted November 5, 2008
Corrected on 11/05/08: An earlier version of this article incorrectly reported Barack Obama's largest margin of victory. His largest margin was in Hawaii.
- 1%: Obama's margin of victory in Indiana (99% of precincts reporting)
- 45%: Obama's margin of victory in Hawaii (100% of precincts reporting)
- Less than 1%: McCain's margin of victory in Missouri (100% of precincts reporting)
- 32%: McCain's margin of victory in Wyoming and Oklahoma (100% of precincts reporting)
