I have not looked at other states but if Hennepin is Minnesota's bellwether county the term has no meaning. I don't care how long a "winning" streak they have, if a county votes 40 points one way or the other from the state results it is not a bellwether. The definition of a bellwether county as I have always understood it is a county that usually matches the statewide margin. It's not perfect but Nicollet County probably is the best fit to that definition in Minnesota.
