Am I correct in saying Ohio is the state with the longest streak of picking the electoral vote winner?

What about popular vote? The only state I can think of is New Mexico, and I can't think of any other state that's even close.

I think New Mexico has only missed 1976 since 1912. Nevada probably has the next best record of only missing 1976 and 2000 since 1912.

As for longest apart from New Mexico, it's basically the three Bush-Obama-Obama-Clinton states: Nevada, Colorado, Virginia all of these voted for Bush in 2000, so that's where their streak ends.
