There were only TWO other counties whose 2020 Biden vote exceeded the 2008 Obama vote - Olmsted County [Rochester, and the Mayo Clinic], and small Cook County, on the NE Canadian border.
You can see that counties that were enthused for Obama 2008 took a little break from liking Joe and The Ho in 2020.
Oddly, only 9 of the 86 Minnesota counties came out like gangbusting berserkers for The Joek.
Kind of nice for state-stealing when your ballot-harvesting area is a small 55 mile by 70 mile rectangle...
Those efficient people from Minnesota!

Biden won 7 of those 37 counties - 5 of them by the skin of his teeth, compared to Obama's solid victories in those counties.
AUDIT ALL 50 STATES!!!

MN is one of the added states I said DT really won. Refer to my chart.
Agree this is totally logical.
And it has yet to be proven anywhere where it matters. That’s the key.
I don’t think Biteme got more than 63m votes, if that.
