Oregon is roughly 71% White, while Massachusetts is about 68%. Vermont and Maine are the whitest states in the country, at about 90% each. Washington State is around 65% White, and Minnesota stands out in the Upper Midwest at about 82%. These figures reflect the broad demographic patterns across the northern U.S., with New England and parts of the Midwest remaining the most heavily White by percentage.
According to the argument that you're making, they should be reliable Republican states. Yet they all voted for Harris in 2024.
I do not have the current data to accurately debate ethnicity, gender, age, religious, and country of birth voting patterns with you.
My statements about the White Vote reference the NEP national average, and cannot be applied to each individual state.
Regardless, two facts still stand out.
(1) There was no Trump land slide.
Kamala Harris - who was the weakest major party nominee in the last century - could have won the election by flipping less than 2% of the vote in Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin.
If Kamala had nominated the popular Democrat Governor of Pennsylvania as her Vice President, and if Kamala had focused on pulling away Third Party Democrats in those three states, like Biden focused on in 2020, she would be in the White House.
(2) Trump was the only GOP candidate in 2016, 2020, and 2024, who could win a national election.
In spite of that, Trump never even got to 50% of the Popular Vote.
