R:

Since 1968:  Alaska, Idaho, Kansas, Nebraska, North Dakota, Oklahoma, South Dakota, Utah, Wyoming
Since 1980:  Alabama, Mississippi, South Carolina, Texas
Since 1996:  Montana
Since 2000:  Arkansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Missouri, Tennessee, West Virginia

D:

Since 1976:  Minnesota
Since 1988:  Hawaii, Massachusetts, New York, Oregon, Rhode Island, Washington
Since 1992:  California, Connecticut, Delaware, Illinois, Maine, Maryland, New Jersey, Vermont

The oddity here is the GOP stronghold of Indiana - it feels like it should be an "except in '64" state but there was the 2008 Obama fluke.

Edited to include Montana.  It would be another since "except in '64" state but Clinton won it in 1992.

Except it nearly flipped quite a few times, whereas Indiana has usually been very strong R.

Vermont voted Republican in every election from 1856 to 1960, and Georgia Democratic in every election from 1852 to that same year (except 1864, during the Civil War).

Currently, the US states with the longest streaks are the Rust Belt Trio.
