For PA the GOP would have to win by 3 to have a chance at it, but possibly by 8. It's not out of range but even Mobdale and Dukakis were competitive here. Nowadays we'd have to win by a couple points at least.

For a swing state, Florida is still pretty Republican. I'd give that honor to Ohio, and in 2012, Virginia voted almost identically to the nation as a whole.

Florida hasn't been center left since 1976 with the Carter wave.  The last time it was truly center-left was in 1948.  None of us were born then so to say Florida would vote Democrat unless the Democrats win is bogus.  It likely will vote for the winner though.

I agree it leans right

Let's make a thread about this!
