1960 (and the Kennedy Senate race of 1952) seems to have put Massachusetts from a Liberal Republican bastion to a solidly Democratic state.

Off the top of my head : 1964 in the South (all Goldwater states) -> the beginning of the fall of the "Solid South".

Don't know which election applies but either 1972-1980-1984 for Texas being a solidly GOP state from 1988 onwards.

Arguably 2016 applies for some of the Rust Belt states, Wisconsin, Michigan and Pennsylvania weren't viewed as states the GOP could win prior to 2016.
