, this is the last election in which
Lehigh County or the
Greater Philadelphia suburban counties of
Montgomery and
Delaware have voted Republican at the presidential level. This is the last time that
Erie County voted for the statewide loser, and the only time it has done so since
1948. Bush became the only Republican to date to win the White House without carrying
Indiana County, and the only one to do so without carrying
Clinton County since
Benjamin Harrison in
1888. This was also the first election since
1932 where Pennsylvania did not vote the same as neighboring
New York, another phenomenon that would not occur again until 2016 and 2024. ==See also==
