In 2020, Joe Biden received five voters to Trump’s zero and in 2016, Hillary Clinton beat Trump four to two (with Gary Johnson and Mitt Romney each getting one vote). The last time the tiny township–which was memorably fictionalized as “Hartsfield’s Landing” on an episode of The West Wing– tied was in 2012 when Barack Obama and Romney each got five votes.
