Not particularly relevant, but the little county in Iowa I am familiar with rather intimately now, Madison County, in the most recent primary, just went massively GOP. Latham was getting 4 times as many votes as Boswell (even in the City of Winterset, which is the most Dem part of the county; in the old days, the county seats in rural America tended to be the most Pub, but those days seem to be over), and the whole GOP ticket was swamping the Dems by 2 to 1 margins or more. Madison is a lean GOP county, but it seems to be trending Pub rather substantially. I suspect it is more than the Dems just not showing up to vote.
