I think WV threw out a corrupt GOP governor at the same time.

Vermont didn't trend to the left till the 1990s anyway.

It actually started trending to the left right around 1988.  Dukakis nearly won Vermont and I believe was leading in most polls there up until the election.

This is what a real close Dukakis win would have looked like. Assuming 50-50 pV margin.


Yep, pretty much.  He was also leading in Ohio and Colorado before the Republican Convention.
