North Carolina and Virginia would also be heavily affected. Trump could potentially be the first Republican since George W. Bush to win all of the former Confederacy, and nearly all of the slave states in existence in 1860 -if this was real.
Which makes me think about Mississippi as well, not because it is competitive at the national level, but because the racial polarization in the state is pretty much the only reason Democrats remain remotely competitive at the state level, while it presents a hard ceiling for the Mississippi Democratic Party-and a hard floor for Democratic presidential candidates.
Even if Trump makes massive gains with Black voters, he will still lose VA. White voters in suburbs are entrenched Democrats atp.
I said Virginia would be heavily affected, not that he would win it. Though if he made the gains with black voters that all the hype is suggesting, he could make Virginia a swing state again, for a time.
