| - The United States Presidential Election, 2016 was the 58th quadrennial Presidential Election in the United States. It was held on November 6th, 2016. Governor Andrew Cuomo of New York easily defeated Republican nominee Governor Chris Christie of New Jersey. The outcome was 416 to 122 in the electoral college. Cuomo maintained a careful campaign, that connected him with Republicans. He gave a no nonsense message to congress, and made it clear he was only for cooperation, and that while he was President, he would only focus on fiscal policy. Christie on the other hand, campaigned non-aggressively, did not gain enough support from his party, and in the end was a failure of a candidate.

Christie on the other hand, campaigned non-aggressively, did not gain enough support from his party, and in the end was a failure of a candidate. The Democratic Primary was of a large scale, with many candidates dropping out even before the primary. On the other hand, the Republican Primary learned from the mistake of last time and had only a small number of candidates running, and only three that won primaries (Christie, Pawlenty and Jindal). This was the largest landslide since the George H. W. Bush vs Michael Dukakis election in 1988, and one of the three times since 1974 since a Democrat won Indiana (1974, 2008, 2016)
