Nevada
Nevada gained statehood in October 1864, one of two states to join the Union during the Civil War. The state had three electoral votes through 1980. The population of the Silver State has more than tripled since 1980, including 35% growth between 2000 and 2010, bringing its number of electoral votes to six.
Although Republicans were dominant from the late 60s to late 80s, this influx of population has put Nevada squarely into the battleground state category. In 2016, Hillary Clinton beat Donald Trump by a margin of 48% to 46%. That year and 1976 were the only two times since 1912 that Nevadans had sided with the candidate that did not win the presidency. In 2020, Joe Biden won by about 2.5% over Trump.
