MODERATORS
My first thought was; did Jill Stein's 2016 campaign have any real impact on the result?
Looking at this table of results implies that if all Stein voters had voted for Clinton, then maybe Clinton would have won Michigan (final EC result is still 290:248), but the contests elsewhere either weren't close enough, or didn't have enough Green voters to matter. Looking at that table, it's clear that the Libertarians had a much bigger impact.
