Never.  Their platforms may have changed some over the years, but the switch wasn't as radical as liberals like to pretend it was.  That's just an excuse they make to keep repeating the lie that the racist Democrats joined the GOP after Johnson signed the Civil Rights Act.

But just think -- Ike won everything in the North and West, winning two states together (Massachusetts and Minnesota) that Republicans have never won together -- twice.
Reagan got Massachusetts twice.

Yes, that was ONE election.  After 1964, most of the segregationists went right back to the Democrats.
