For instance, WV has a Republican governor, but he was a Democrat originally. He switched. They have voted Republican federally for eight years. They have a conservative Supreme Court majority. Both representatives in the House are Republican. In the West Virginia State Senate, 31 of 34 members are Republican. So, Republican presidential vote, governor, Supreme Court, Representatives and state senate. That looks like a political switch to me.
Appalachia switched during the Clinton administration primarily. NAFTA caused so many folks in the region to swear of Democrats.
