No Republican has ever won the presidency without Ohio, and until recently, unsuccessful Democratic campaigns were able to keep the race for the state’s 18 electoral votes tight. But Ohio took a right-hand turn in 2016, backing Trump by eight points. Trump posted a similar margin over Biden, meaning the state’s run as a reliable indicator of presidential winners since 1964 has come to an end.
Biden did get a win in Nevada, the next-most-predictive state, which has picked the president in all but two elections since 1960. Florida stuck with Trump despite picking the winning candidate since 1996.
Three Rust Belt states — Wisconsin, Michigan and Pennsylvania — each flipped back into the Democratic column after backing Trump in 2016. Those states have voted for the winning candidate consecutively since 2008.
