Elected President

Bill Clinton
Democratic

South Dakota was won by incumbent President George H. W. Bush (R-Texas) with 40.66% of the popular vote over Governor Bill Clinton (D-Arkansas) with 37.14%. Businessman Ross Perot (I-Texas) finished in third, with 21.80% of the popular vote.[1] Clinton ultimately won the national vote, defeating incumbent President Bush and Perot.[2] As of the 2020 presidential election, this is the last election in which Spink County, Hanson County, Davison County, and Aurora County voted for a Democratic presidential candidate.[3]

Despite winning the state, Bush's 40.66% of the vote remains the worst performance for a Republican in South Dakota since Herbert Hoover's 34.4% in 1932, and the second-worst ever (after the 1932 election) for a Republican on the ballot in the state.[a]
