Post Civil War, states where 100% of counties went one party then 100% for the opposite party next election:

Delaware 1892-1896
Idaho 1892-1896* (100% non-D to 100% D)
Nevada 1892-1896* (100% non-D to 100% D)
Nevada 1900-1904
Delaware 1908-1912
Maine 1908-1912* (100% R to 100% non-R)
Utah 1916-1920
Mississippi 1944-1948
Delaware 1964-1968
Mississippi 1964-1968* (100% non-R to 100% R)
Hawaii 1968-1972
Delaware 1972-1976
Georgia 1972-1976
Hawaii 1972-1976
Delaware 1976-1980
Hawaii 1984-1988
Maine 1988-1992* (100% R to 100% non-R)

In general, 1916-1920 probably had close to the highest number of county flips ever. 1928-1932 saw a lot too, maybe more, but Al Smith actually did pretty well in winning isolated counties in almost every state out west.
