Blue was Reagan’s color

Only in his second election. In the first it was red. That was because then the incumbent party was blue and the challenger was red.

Here’s what we are talking about. The Republicans were usually blue. This is from 1980, Reagan’s first election.

No, blue used to be the color of the GOP (blue bloods) and red the color of the dems (commies). At some point the media decided to reverse the colors.
