‘Same Since’ Electoral Maps

States that have voted for the same party in consecutive elections

The country has become increasingly politically polarized in recent decades. This can be vividly seen in the two most recent presidential elections, where 44 of the 50 states voted for the same party. That consistency is not a recent phenomenon: 35 states have voted for the same party since 2000.

The maps below show the evolution of single-party presidential election voting consistency since 1964. Select any of them to view an interactive version. These can be used as a starting point for your own presidential election forecast.
