Odd kind of place whose voting patterns I don't understand. The best-fitting simple narrative might be that it just drifted Republican earlier than similar places elsewhere... but somehow stopped drifting at some point.

That's because the district is a failed gerrymander Smiley So the boundaries twice illogical Smiley
Nah, I meant Schuylkill County specifically. I'm aware of the failed gerrymander part.

Except the place has no real R trend. Which is actually just as surprising as the fact that it has an R tradition.
