County to County: 7 communities in 7 states to watch for 2022 midterm elections, each offering a story about longterm U.S. political trends.
Young voters make up the margins in Dane County, Wisconsin. The state capital and home to the University of Wisconsin-Madison, Dane is a solidly Democratic bastion of liberalism. President Joe Biden won the county by some 53 points in 2020.
But in 2020, Biden won this county by only 4 points over Donald Trump, while Hillary Clinton carried it by 13 points in 2016. It is a place to measure whether the Democratic Party is engaging and turning out the rural Black vote, a big part of the party’s strength in the South. The Jacksonville mayor’s office has swung between the two parties over the past 30 years and since 2008, the county has been within 4 percentage points in every presidential election. In 2020, Biden won Duval by four points, swinging it Democratic after it voted for Donald Trump in 2016.Evangelical voters are big in Chattooga County, Georgia. In the northwest corner of the state, this rural county's support for Trump grew in 2020 even as the state flipped blue.
Biden did a little better here in 2020 than Hillary Clinton did in 2016, but Luzerne was still Trump country. He won it by 14 points last November. Can Democrats keep Biden’s small inroads here, and perhaps build on them? That’s big question across the Great Lakes and the Midwest where there are a lot of counties like this.
