The 2024 elections are expected to be much different from the most recent midterm cycle, as newly drawn congressional maps and a shifting political battlefield begin to take shape in previously considered swing states.
The new battleground map for 2024 reveals a shift in how quickly onetime swing states are changing to become more partisan and how other states that were once solidly red or blue have become toss-ups in recent years. And with Democrats looking to change up their presidential primary calendar to include a new lineup of battleground states, candidates are set to focus on a slew of areas that have previously fallen to the wayside.
Other swing states, such as Michigan or Colorado, have also been brushed off by political analysts for 2024, with both states trending blue in recent years. Meanwhile, Texas has become less competitive as it establishes itself as a Republican stronghold.Wisconsin has proved itself to be a tight battleground state over the last few elections, narrowly awarding presidential candidates a win by the slimmest of margins.
Candidates are expected to keep their eyes on both rural Wisconsin, which is considered to be Trump country, and the Milwaukee suburbs, which are considered to be more favorable toward Democrats.Georgia has positioned itself as a crucial swing state in the last two election cycles, establishing itself as the closest battleground in the 2020 presidential race.
The Keystone State has also become increasingly tight in who it backs for president, meaning it could once again be considered a crucial swing state in the next election cycle. Trump won Pennsylvania by 0.7 points in 2016, reversing a decadeslong trend of Democratic wins.Arizona has also positioned itself as a crucial swing state in recent years, often elevating candidates from opposite ends of the ideological spectrum to face off on the ballot.
