Contributing sentiments towards policy:

48% : In that scenario, Republicans would likely elect Trump to the White House, as they are expected to control the majority of state House delegations.
39% : Those votes ultimately didn't deprive Trump of his majority in the Electoral College, but if "faithless electors" cause a candidate to fall below the 270-vote threshold, then it could cause the election to be decided in the House of Representatives instead.
35% : Maine also split its votes, with Biden taking three votes and Trump taking one.
