Virginia was won by Senator Bob Dole (R-KS), 47.10% to 45.15% over incumbent President Bill Clinton (D-AR) producing a margin of 1.95%.[1] Billionaire businessman Ross Perot (Reform-TX) finished in third, with 6.62% of the popular vote.
As of 2020[update], this marked the last time a Democrat was elected without winning Virginia. Virginia was also the only state Bill Clinton lost twice but Hillary Clinton won, as she managed a 5% victory in the state in 2016. As of the 2020 presidential election[update], this was also the last time Bath, Allegheny, Giles, Smyth, Tazewell, Lee, Wise, Dinwiddie, Accomack Counties, and the independent cities of Galax and Buena Vista voted for a Democratic presidential candidate.[2] The election was, however, the first time the Democratic Presidential nominee had carried Prince Edward County – famous for its Civil Rights-era school desegregation cases – since Harry S. Truman in 1948,[a] and the first time since 1968 that Essex County had voted Democratic.[3]
This remains the only time in history that a Democratic president has won re-election without carrying Virginia.
