None of the above. The single most important determinant in voting preference is ideology. Liberals and conservatives both experienced slightly higher partisanship, breaking 90-10 for Biden and 85-15 for Trump respectively. The decisive factor was Biden increased the Democratic advantage with moderates from the historical average of 15-20 points to 30. That's actually higher than the 22 point advantage Obama netted in 08, however the election remained close because conservatives made up a higher percentage than usual of the 2020 electorate.
