1. Seeing the history of the way each state voted is really interesting

2. thats exactly what I liked about it

looking at Florida for example given all the Florida issues.....

looking at Mississippi to see if there's any chance for a Dem Mississippi win....

3. Texas was dem in the 1800's while Mass was republican.

4. Didn't that flip-flop

have to do with Reconstruction?

5. It had more to do with the Civil War, then the Civil Rights Act

No rebel state was going to vote for the party of Lincoln. No former rebel state was going to vote for the party that gave their former slaves equal rights.

6. I am not sure whether republicans leaned more liberal or not back then.
