In 2016, it was Donald Trump who took the victory here. In 2012 and 2008, Obama won, while George Bush won before that again, in 2004 and 2000.
During all of the presidential elections, which date back to 1952, the majority of the inhabitants of the province of Valencia in the state of New Mexico voted for what should turn out to be the next president of the United States, writes Politico.
And what is not impressive enough:
The turnout of presidential candidates in Valencia has also often mirrored, or been very close to, turnout at the national level, according to the website.
– Wow
Thus, the outcome of the elections in this small county can give an indication of how it will also go nationally in the United States today, if the county still today maintains the 68-year tradition of choosing the same party as the majority of the rest of the country.
– Wait a minute. It’s okay? Retired military officer Dale Thule tells Politico when he learned of the hometown’s history. He has lived in Valencia for 40 years and was interviewed shortly after giving his breakthrough to current President Donald Trump.
This happens if Trump wins
– Wow, I never thought it was something we were known for, he says, adding that he has voted for the Republican Party his entire life.
– For real? is the reaction that Politico gets from the electrician George Torres.
– It’s a first for me. I have no idea why this is so, continue.
Valencia County, with its 76,688 residents, is the sixth most populous in New Mexico, a state that is not significantly known for having particularly numerous counties.
– dangerous
David Linares, who runs a honey farm in the southern tip of Valencia, will likely vote for Biden this year, he tells Politico.
– Actually, I’m not sure I want to vote, to be honest. I don’t have much faith in any of them, but if I vote, it will be Biden, he says.
Enough with Donald Trump
Political researchers will say that it is dangerous to use a place to pace, or to try to predict, which choices the rest of the country’s inhabitants will make, Politico writes.
Polls in New Mexico close at 03:00 tonight Norwegian time. The state is among those that allow early votes to be counted before voting at the polling stations, so the first responses from states can be expected to come shortly after 3 a.m. tonight.
98.8 million votes have already been registered in the presidential elections. This is 71.7 percent of all votes cast during the 2016 elections.
