A Christmas present: Missouri’s bellwether record in 3 minutes, 11 seconds
Jo Mannies
Special to the Post-Dispatch

As a holiday gift to all Political Fix regulars, here’s a fascinating YouTube video — apparently around for sometime, but just recently discovered by yours truly — that documents, in vivid red and blue, Missouri’s presidential past. It’s particularly interesting to watch the stark “mood swings” of the state’s voters (such as, big for Hoover, then bigger for FDR.)

I don’t know the creator of the maps or the video, but assume that it is largely the creation of a professor or some other election expert. Kudos to whoever put it together.

And to all — Enjoy.
