We had a full list of this, anyone got it? Needs to be updated.

I thought Indiana and North Carolina would be interesting now, so I checked it out, and Indiana's is Tippencanoe now with the longest streak, voting with the state since 1940. North Carolina's is Forsyth since 1964.
In Alabama, only two counties switched between 2004 and 2008, Marengo (edge of the Black Belt) and Jefferson (Birmingham).  Based on the popular vote, Marengo is correct since 1992.  Based on the electoral vote, Jefferson is correct since 2000.

I thought we were defining bellweather counties by how the state goes.
