United States presidential election in Wisconsin, 2016 Donald Trump won Wisconsin by a narrow margin of 47.2% to 46.5% for Hillary Clinton, thanks to overwhelming and underestimated support from white working class voters which the Democrats had previously had an advantage with,[2][3][4] making him the first Republican candidate to carry the state since Ronald Reagan in 1984. On November 25, an irregularity was discovered by officials in Outagamie County, that resulted in the pre-official vote totals being reported incorrectly. This irregularity was due to a calculator error. It was corrected in the official vote totals.[5] Following a statewide recount requested by Jill Stein's campaign, Trump was certified to have won Wisconsin by a narrow margin â€” 1,405,284 votes to Clinton's 1,382,536.[6]
