Considering the fact that there's a lot of "who's more likely to flip" threads popping up, I thought this one was a no-brainer. Which titanium D state is more likely to flip- Vermont or Massachusetts?


I'm going to go with VT on this one, because it would be more demographically friendly (as in whiter) to a Republican than MA, and it trended nicely to the right in 2016 unlike MA.

Vermont, but both are about as likely to flip as Arkansas.

I'd say Vermont. Vermont was closer, but that was because of the massive write-in total. It probably is more elastic. It also may be more willing to elect moderate Republicans than Massachusetts since Scott won by 12 points there and Baker only won by 2 points in Massachusetts

Okay, maybe Mike Johnson is a competent parliamentarian.

Vermont, but I'll say once again that on the federal level it would sooner flip for a Trump-lite candidate than a generically-affluent moderate Smiley fiscally conservative but socially liberal Smiley Smiley candidate.
