In the 2024 election, every single state in the country moved to the right with Republicans gaining votes even in blue states like Massachusetts, New York, and New Jersey.
Take a look below and you’ll see that the states that are darker red moved further to the right. Look at California and New York.
This is why the work of people like Scott Presler is so important.

Roll Call reported on this:
The biggest Baseline change compared with two years ago was in West Virginia, where Republicans extended their advantage by 11.5 points. That’s because the 2016 elections were dropped from the calculation to make room for this year’s results, which means Democratic victories for state treasurer and governor, and close-ish races for secretary of state and agriculture secretary are no longer included.
Other shifts compared with 2022 were more subtle and spanned the partisan spectrum. The battleground state of Pennsylvania moved 2.4 points to the right. Republican states that moved further right included Montana (3.8 points) and Missouri (2.1), while Democratic states that saw rightward shifts included Hawaii (4.3), New Jersey (1.9) and New York, which moved 3.8 points, fueled in part by GOP gains on Long Island.
The Baseline shift from 2020 to 2024 is more dramatic in the states that moved right. Beyond West Virginia, Arkansas is 8.5 points more Republican on the Baseline margin than it was four years ago, along with Idaho (6.7) and Wyoming (3.9).
While Democrats now have a Baseline advantage of 18.7 points in New York, that represents a 6.9-point shift to the right since 2020. And Florida, which was once a swing state, moved 4.7 points rightward over the previous four years to give Republicans a whopping 10.3-point Baseline advantage.
New Jersey is the next state Scott Presler is going to try to flip. It’s a perfect choice.
Sounds about right, Every Single New Jersey County shifted to theRepublicans from the previous electionhttps://t.co/x7UrWPaUmL
