State · Illinois · June 2026
Illinois: The Bellwether That Became the Wall
For most of American history, Illinois picked presidents — no Republican won the White House without it until 2000. The profile traces how the former bellwether became the Midwest’s Democratic wall, and reads the 2024 result — the narrowest Democratic margin since 2004 — county by county.
County · Sangamon County, IL
Sangamon County: The Company Town Where the Company Is the State
The seat of a Democratic state’s government and one of the last Republican-run urban counties in Illinois. The profile reads a county that holds near R+5.0 (2024) while its downstate neighbors move away from it — and why a government payroll makes politics run cool.
June 2026 · 2,777 wordsRead →
City · Paterson, NJPaterson: The City Hamilton Built, Governed From Outside and Voting Like the Country Only More So
America’s first planned industrial city, built around a waterfall and still partly governed from outside. The profile reads how the largest Democratic stronghold in Passaic County fell to 62% for Harris in 2024 — and became the engine that flipped its county to a Republican president for the first time in three decades.
