Berkeley, CA was once a strongly Republican town. Fairly conservative, too.

the Appalachian region, particularly West Virginia. the ideological change has already been sharp, but it's only going to become even deeper over the years.

Not really an ideological change going on there. It's always been socially conservative/economically populist (for lack of a better term). But the lack of the latter in the modern Democratic Party and the presence of the former in the modern Republican Party means...yeah.
