These two maps are the percentage of the vote in each county for Hillary Clinton in the 2008 Pennsylvania Democratic Primary, and for Donald Trump in the 2016 Pennsylvania Republican Primary.

Notice how similar the results are. What do you think this says about the coalitions? Clinton '08 had white working class Democrats safely in her column. It appears as though Trump has taken more white working class voters from the Democrats into the GOP and they are supporting him. This is shown in other states, but I found this similarity striking.

There was also similarity between Clinton 08 and Brown 10 in MA.

Brown would be a great VP pick for Trump, but those Cruz delegates would never let him get away with picking him.
