Over the last several elections, I've noticed that in the least populated counties in rural Texas, the total number of votes which the Democratic candidate received in some places could be counted with one's fingers. For example, in Loving County, Texas, the Democratic candidate received 9 votes in 2012 and 4 votes in 2016, whereas in King County, Texas, the count was 5 votes apiece in both years.

Thus, I've been wondering: has there ever been an occasion where a major-party candidate got shut-out completely in a particular county (i.e. received 0 votes) during a general election?
