The votes for the 2024 US presidential election are being counted and some are looking to past races to get an idea of ​​how the race might go.

The 2016 election was the first general election in which former President Donald Trump ran for a major party, defeating then-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton.

Trump won the Electoral College with 306 electoral votes, although he lost the popular vote by almost 2.9 million votes.

The result was a shock, as Clinton was considered a heavy favorite to win the White House.

“It was a bit of a traumatic election,” Anna Moody, a Democratic voter in Santa Clarita, California, told USA TODAY in an interview on Tuesday. “I remember very clearly watching when all the results came in.”

Here is the map of the 2016 Electoral College.
