A historic election took place on Nov. 8 when Donald Trump triumphed with a surprising presidential victory over Hillary Clinton, who, despite losing in the electoral college process, led the popular vote.
Clinton is the first candidate since the 2000 election to win the popular vote but lose the electoral vote.
Trump won historically Democratic states such as Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, Florida and Ohio.
Additionally, more Republican and rural voters showed up to the polls than predicted, leading to a misjudge of the electorate. According to The New York Times, 67 percent of white voters without a college degree made up the demographics for those who voted for Trump.
Over the next 100 days, Trump and Vice President Mike Pence will formulate a plan to address many controversial issues such as the deportation of illegal immigrants, selecting a replacement for Justice Antonin Scalia and fully repealing the Affordable Care Act with a Health Savings Account.
