Apologies if this has been discussed before, but why did George W. Bush do so good in Vermont in 2000, only losing by 9.93%? I was thinking it had something to do with the few remaining ancestral Yankee Republicans still alive at the time who died in the years after 2000.

Partially Nader, but a lot of people thought that W. was just going to be a continuation of the Bush Sr. years and that he was a moderate 'compassionate conservative' realist. Gore ran as a bigger interventionist. They didn't know what Bush would become.
