Clinton won WV by 15 points in 1996. Gore lost it by 6 points in 2000. Best theory for that 21-point difference: Married women in WV appalled by Clinton's conduct and the Democrats' wink-and-a-nod tolerance of it. Guns and coal didn't change that much as an issue in four years. — PolitiTweet.org

@BresPolitico I think 2008 was the last year the Dem ticket campaigned there. (I only remember bc Biden called it “West by God Virginia”)

@thepaulkyle A little more complicated. The data is indeed from a WV exit poll in 2008. But it is the Democratic primary rather than the general election. Question also includes people who voted for Obama because he is black. Anyway, here's the poll: https://t.co/16gl5xlqIQ — PolitiTweet.org
