Obama did so well in the Southwest sans Arizona. 15 point win in NM, 9 point win in CO, and 12 point win in NV. NV swung 15 points to the left in 2008, and then has swung right in 3 consecutive presidential elections. It seems like most of the 2004 swing states had the biggest swings in 2008. He won WI by 14, MI by 16, Iowa by 10 as well.

2008 was the aberration here when you consider Hispanics tend to swing towards the incumbent apparently.

Maybe they only swing toward the incumbent candidate rather than the incumbent party.

Or, maybe if the national environment is strong enough toward one party they get swept along with it.

One of the two.

Higher turnout makes places trend Republican? Everyone told me higher turnout was going to benefit Joe Biden and Democrats prior to the election.

Nevada is clearly not Colorado or New Mexico. Still, Democrats are favored there for the time being. It's a bit like New Hampshire.

higher turnout generally benefit democrats but its not a 100% advantage to the dems but rather a 60-40% advantage to the dems. In alot of areas dems benefit from higher turnout but in some areas republicans could do so as well
