So, which states have had their white populations voting Democrat for the longest period of time? Every state had their white population vote Republican in 1984, obviously. Mondale's win in Minnesota was small enough that minority votes probably put him over the top with Reagan narrowly winning the white vote. But MN whites have almost certainly been Democrat every election from 1988 onwards. I think it's safe to say Washington whites have been Democrat since 1988.
MA and RI seem like the only other ones that could possibly go back to 1988. Maybe Hawaii, but I doubt it.
