Working class county and Trump does well among those working class voters?

Was one of the last yellow dog counties (along with Elliott, KY), so it had room to fall.

Yea this county seems to have had by far the biggest R swing in the country outside of McMullin/heavily Hispanic counties. Weird

Hillary had some residual Clinton support left in Arkansas.

These are the types of places where generational turnover is bad for Democrats.

One of the last holdouts of the Solid South finally giving up.

Clark County, Arkansas and the Missouri Bootheel (Pemiscot, New Madrid, Mississippi) are similar. Clark voted D until 2004 and only narrowly R 2008-2016, and the three Bootheel counties last voted D for President in 2000 but voted D for all statewide offices in 2012.

It might seem a bit silly, but could the lack of a Democratic Senate candidate have depressed any residual Democratic support in some parts of Arkansas?
