K-Nearest Neighbor algorithm for classification

This project will present the K-Nearest Neighbor algorithm, which is a popular machine learning technique used for classification and regression. We will cover relevant topics such as hyperparameters, splitting the data into training and testing datasets, and finally, we will attempt to predict the winner of the 2016 Presidential election (Trump vs. Clinton) in each county in the US.
