From McClatchy:
The election marked the first time since 1821 that a Democrat was elected president without winning Missouri.Oh fucking well, lots of things changed this November 4th.
Overall, it was also the first time since 1956, and only the second time since 1900, that the state backed a presidential loser.
"Missouri has lost its status as a bellwether," said Kevin Smith, a veteran of Democratic presidential campaigns in the 1970s, '80s, and '90s. "It has established itself as a red state when it comes to national politics."
