I've mentioned that Florida seeing the Tampa Bay Area switching
我提到过佛罗里达州的坦帕湾地区有转蓝趋势
but even in the longer term it's more the Orlando Area

that's been more significant
更为明显
so not much of a change on the county level but certainly enough to throw Florida into the blue category
虽然在县级上今年较上一届没有太多变化 但微小的变化已足以使佛罗里达被民主党收入蓝营

弗吉尼亚州是另一个变化很大的州
you don't see it on the map so much

and some of these counties it's 12-15% vote shift in the Democratic direction
有些县对民主党支持率甚至上升了12%到15%

Virginia had been trending Democratic for a long time

在这次大选前 上一次它支持民主党人 是1964年时投给了林登约翰逊
so this could be a big change
可见这次它泛蓝意味着多大的变化
