The amazing part of the election of 1984 (from what I've seen from old youtube videos) wasn't that Reagan won 49 of 50 states, but that he didn't win Minnesota.
I mean I always found Mondale to be a great speaker but against the Reagan Machine, God himself couldn't beat him.
Yeah, I youtube'd some election footage from that night and everyone thought he'd win Minnesota.

Close states
Margin of victory less than 5%[18][19]

1.Minnesota, 0.18%

Just... ouch.
