Starting with the 2010 mid-term election and going on toward the 2022 mid-term elections, do you see any major shifts in party faithful and party base in terms of regions of the country?  Such as, will the center stripe (Dakotas through Texas) and southeast become any less Republican, will the Southwest continue trending Democratic, will the Midwest and Northeast become less Democratic, will the West Coast become less Democratic?

I'm going to wait a bit before answering as I want to see other's responses, first.

Light blue and light red are happening slowly, darker blue and darker red are happeningly rapidly. In some cases the trend is irrelevant to the electoral college because the state is trending in the direction of its current orientation, though this is mostly true in Republican-trending states.

There are also degrees of trend; Indiana and Montana are slightly trending Democratic, but not nearly so much so as Nevada, which nonetheless is not even comparable to Virginia or Colorado or New Hampshire.

Overall, the trend of increasingly-populous Republican states combined with the slow trend of borderline states to the Democrats continues.



You need to color Oklahoma green.  We are definitely not trending GOP anymore.  In my honest assessment of this state, we are drifting ever so slowly Democratic, but not enough to change the dynamics of this great state.
