Lancaster County trends are very real and very fascinating. Biden last year was only the second Democrat since LBJ to get 40% in the county, the first being the ticket he was on in '08. LBJ is the only Democrat since Lancaster's own James Buchanan to carry the county, although it's voted for the occasional statewide Dem from time to time (such as in Bob Casey Sr's 1990 NUTslide). I'd be curious to see York vs York County as well; the county is ancestrally (pre-New Deal) Dem, and York has significant Black and Hispanic populations, but Biden couldn't crack 40% like Obama '12 and Carter '76 could.
