West Virginia's Democratic tilt displayed the strong Democratic lean the state would have for the rest of the 20th century, voting Republican only three times between 1932 and 1996 (in the Republican landslides of 1956, 1972, and 1984). West Virginia and Kentucky were the only states outside of the former Confederacy (though Kentucky also had a Confederate government that controlled half the state early on) carried by the Democratic Party in 1952.
