It is considered a swing state for the Democrats and the Republicans, and to see the checkered flag wins, no party can claim it as its own. All politicians, whether Republican or Democrat, have had their predictions sawed off at the time of primaries or general elections. Hillary Clinton managed a narrow victory over Barack Obama in the primaries. Obama eventually won the nomination, but that win secured Hillary the vice presidency as her sagging fortunes were lifted the moment she beat Obama.

This pattern showed people were fed up with mainstream politicians.
