Bismarck:
Almost certainly Republican overall but probably at a lower rate than people of German or English or Dutch descent.
King of Kensington:
Yeah, just by a factor of location Norwegian Americans should be a bit less R. 20% are in Minnesota, and liberal Washington State has a good number as well. Maybe 55-45 R?
longtimelurker:
In the late 19th Century, more GOP than Germans, according to Kleppner, Paul (1979). The Third Electoral System 1853–1892.
