2008: Indiana. Just...what?
-- Personally, I'd also list Virginia. That's solely because I was a very casual political observer at the time and didn't know much about "trends" or "priors". I thought it was incredible that Obama won a southern state that Clinton & Carter couldn't win.
2012: I don't know, Florida?
2016: Michigan. Lots of talks with my Michigan transplant friends over that one.
2020: I guess Florida, in that I didn't expect the rightward-swing. Wasn't expecting Trump to do better in Florida than Biden did in Nevada/Michigan. North Carolina was also a bit surprising.
-- I don't mean to toot my own horn, but Georgia wasn't that shocking to me. Very excited to see it flip, but it wasn't shocking to me.
