Indiana

With 11 electoral votes in Indiana, Trump bagged 62.9% of the votes, followed by Clinton with 32.7% and Johnson with 4.4% - with 10.8% reporting. Trump's win in the state did not spring any surprises in the predominantly red state as Vice President-hopeful Mike Pence's homestate voted overwhelmingly in favour of the Republican party.

Interestingly, Indiana's Vigo County picked Trump. This is significant as the county's choice for President often resonates with that of the US. The county has managed to accurately predict the president for every election since the 1950s.

Why are people surprised Trump won Indiana & Kentucky? It's been projected from the beginning. Not a shocker.
