Hawaii was won by Governor Bill Clinton (D-Arkansas) with 48.09% of the popular vote over incumbent President George H. W. Bush (R-Texas) with 36.70%. Businessman Ross Perot (I-Texas) finished in third, with 14.22% of the popular vote, which was nonetheless Perot’s poorest showing outside the District of Columbia and antebellum slave states.[1] Clinton ultimately won the national vote, defeating incumbent President Bush. Clinton comfortably won Hawaii by a margin of 11.39%. It has only voted Republican twice since its statehood (1972 for Richard Nixon, and 1984 for Ronald Reagan). These Republican wins were landslides for Presidents Nixon and Reagan who both carried 49 out of 50 states. Hawaii has remained reliably Democratic since.[2]

gollark: <@630513495003103242> Useful "OS"es are hard to develop because they involve somewhat fiddly programming stuff generally, like, well, screen sharing, networking, that sort of thing. If you don't have a decent knowledge base making a useful OS is going to be hard, and OSes, being complex, are not a good way to learn.
gollark: How come PotatOS now works in CCEmuX but loops infinitely in Copy Cat?
gollark: Hmm, looks like potatOS is now just stuck in an infinite restart loop.
gollark: Autodowndating?
gollark: I think it must be somehow autoupdating to an older version somehow.
