Going straight by electoral votes, Reagan in '84. But if we're going by the popular vote, Harding in 1920.

By margin of popular vote victory.

Nixon in '72.  In his map, you could see very little weakness in any state.  Sure, he struggled a bit in MN, WI, SD even...but I really attribute that to McGovern's proximity.  He also for whatever reason, wasn't as dominate as he could have been in the far west.

That being said, he still almost won 61% nationally.

Reagan's win was dominant, but you could to see some GOP weakness in the northeast, midwest, etc.

Reagan, although Nixon was a close second, but he was a crook lol. He almost got all the 50 states, Minnesota being the lone holdout. It's the only state he lost in both 1980 & 84
