Precisely the same reason that Obama did well in the Rust Belt, the state of Illinois and those adjacent, the Democrats were focused almost primarily on rebooting the Rust Belt and the auto industry. The second plank is that Obama won lots, and I mean lots of socially conservative voters in ancestrally Democratic areas. The third plank is that without the 2008 housing crisis, Obama probably would not have done as well in these places.
