2016 United States presidential straw poll in Guam

The 2016 United States presidential straw poll in Guam was held on November 8, 2016. Guam is a territory and not a state. Thus, it is ineligible to elect members of the Electoral College, who would then in turn cast direct electoral votes for president and for vice president. To draw attention to this fact, the territory conducts a non-binding presidential straw poll during the general election as if they did elect members to the Electoral College. The territory still participated in the U.S. presidential caucuses and primaries, like the other states and territories. Democratic Party nominee Hillary Clinton won the poll with over 70% of the vote. This was the first time since the 1980 straw poll that Guam backed the candidate that lost the presidency.
