This is the only election when heavily Yankee Brown County has voted for a Democratic presidential candidate, and also the only election until 2020 when Riley County – another heavily Yankee county in the Dissected Till Plains of northeastern Kansas – has not supported the official Republican nominee.Menendez, Albert J.; The Geography of Presidential Elections in the United States, 1868-2004, pp. 199-206 0786422173 This election marks the last time four different candidates won at least one county within one individual state. This feat would be shared by North Dakota in the same election, but the only other occurrences have been in Missouri in 1860, and in Illinois and Virginia in 1824.
