Did not vote includes a significant number of disenfranchised people who were denied the ability to vote through having the right to vote taken from them, voting suppression barriers such as lines that were 8+ hours long, removal from voter registries, bullshit ID requirements, and other malicious actions.

The asterisk is only when the winning party also won the Senate and house.
The win label is only in the case where the electoral college result was different than the popular vote.
