A good chunk of the depopulating black belt too, but that’s more Dem loss rather than true R gains.
Anyways, some rural parts of MI/WI/PA still seem to be a bit behind re-alignment. Iowa rurals seem way too D still despite Trumps record performance. A lot of Maine also is very low education WWC and is still re-aligning.
I respectfully disagree strongly with the person who said Vermont, outside a few small pockets of the state. Culturally, VT is a very liberal state, has a lot of higher education and tourism communities which aren’t the kinds of places where the gop have been gaining or seem set to gain. Essex County though, which is sort of the most removed from the rest of the state has a good chance to get redder
Some of upstate NY though still has a lot of room for Rs, especially since the NY/PA political divide is quite extreme.
