Hawaii was one of the six states that President Jimmy Carter (D) won. His margin was 1.9 points, his narrowest victory margin in any state.[1] Hawaii is a very liberal state, and both of the state's U.S. senators have been Democrats since 1977,[2] which is partly the reason Reagan lost, albeit very narrowly. As of 2020, this is the second of two times (the first being 1960) in which not all of Hawaii's counties voted for the same candidate. This was the second of three times in which Oahu supported a Republican on the presidential level.
