The 2016 United States presidential election in Massachusetts 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. Massachusetts 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. Massachusetts has 11 electoral votes in the Electoral College. ^[1]

In the general election, Clinton won Massachusetts with 60.01% of the vote, while Trump received 32.81%. This marked the fourth consecutive election in which the Democratic candidate won over 60% of the vote, and the seventh in a row in which they won in every single county in the state, thus making Massachusetts and Hawaii the only states in which Clinton won every single county. Massachusetts had been a Democratic-leaning state since 1928, and a Democratic stronghold since 1960, and has maintained extremely large Democratic margins since 1996. It also marked the fourth consecutive election in which both the Democratic and Republican vote shares in Massachusetts fell; since 2004, the combined vote shares of the two major parties in the Commonwealth have gradually declined from 98.72% to 94.32%.

Clinton improved on Obama's 2012 performance by around 4%, due to a large swing to the Democrat in the metropolitan Boston area, making the state one of 11 (along with the District of Columbia) that shifted towards the Democrats. Meanwhile, the New Bedford and Fall River areas and the western part of Massachusetts, particularly eastern Berkshire County, swung to Trump. ^[2]
