1996 last election where the Republicans didn't get a county sweep in any state/Democrats won at least one county in every state.
1984 last election where the Democrats didn't get a county sweep in any state/Republicans won at least one county in every state.
Guess that's not surprising since those elections were blowouts (though 1984 much more so than 1996).
Edit: something else I noticed...every successfully reelected (not just elected in own right) president won a county in every state until Dubya and Obama broke the trend. Polarization? The fact that those elections were closer?
Yes, Truman and LBJ did it, but only got shut out in MS.
