Timothy Olyphant, Justified — 24.08%

Best Actress, Drama
Last year, this category was the closest race. This year, it has the largest margin of victory — 3,331 votes. That proves, once again, that clone-playing Tatiana Maslany was the snub of the 2013 Emmys.

Emmy Rossum, Shameless — 24.75%
Katey Sagal, Sons of Anarchy — 13.66%
Keri Russell, The Americans — 10.34%

Best Supporting Actor, Drama
Nominated for each of his five seasons on Fringe, John Noble has scored a hat trick: This is his third win. (Naturally, Scandal's Cyrus Beene, Jeff Perry, ran a good race — only 368 votes separated them, making it this year's tightest.) Noble also accepted golden ewes in 2010 and 2012; he was runner-up in 2009 and 2011.
John Noble, Fringe — 26.32%
Jeff Perry, Scandal — 23.71%
Freddie Highmore, Bates Motel — 19.25%
Corey Stoll, House of Cards — 13.02%
Michael Cudlitz, Southland — 9.94%
David Harewood, Homeland — 7.76%

Best Supporting Actress, Drama
Natalie Dormer's powers of persuasion work off-screen as well: The Game of Thrones star courted 458 more voters than Parenthood's Monica Potter.
Natalie Dormer, Game of Thrones — 29.99%
Monica Potter, Parenthood — 26.38%
Hayden Panettiere, Nashville — 14.31%
Maggie Siff, Sons of Anarchy — 12.04%
Regina King, Southland — 11.97%
Abigail Spencer, Rectify — 5.31%
Special shout-out: If you haven't watched Sundance's Rectify, the quality of its ewe-y campaign for actors Abigail Spencer and Aden Young alone should be enough of an incentive.

Parks and Recreation — 37.71%
New Girl — 25.51%
How I Met Your Mother — 25.47%
The Mindy Project — 8.66%
