President
5 Electoral Votes

Republicans have won the past five presidential elections. That is unlikely to change this year. Hidden in that statistic is just how deeply red the state has become in that period. In 2000, George W. Bush won the state by 6%; the GOP margin grew to 13% in 2004 and 2008 and to 27% in 2012. Donald Trump built on that, winning by about 42% in 2016.
