The 2020 United States presidential race is arguably already over
except for about 12 states and 20 counties. If recent presidential
election trends are any indication of what will happen in 2020,
Democrats in Texas and Republicans in New York might as well stay
home on election day because their votes will matter little in the
presidential race. The same might be said for voters in most states
and counties in the United States. Conversely, for those in Ohio,
Florida, Colorado, Iowa, and a handful of other states, every vote
matters. These states will be battered with a barrage of
presidential candidate visits, commercials, political spending, and
countless stories in the media. This book analyzes why the
presidential race has been effectively reduced to about a dozen
states and 20 counties. Contributors to this volume make
substantial updates and additions in light of the 2016 and in
anticipation of the 2020 presidential elections, including 6 new
chapters exploring why some states are swingers in presidential
elections, capable of being won by either of the major candidates.
The volume also adds a chapter examining important swing counties
throughout the country. Presidential Swing States describes what
makes these few states and counties unique and why the presidency
is decided by who wins them. With cases studies written by
prominent political scientists who are experts on these swing
states, Presidential Swing States also explains why some states
have been swingers but no longer are, why some are swinging, and
which states may become the ones that decide the presidency.
