Idaho was won by former California Governor Ronald Reagan (R) by a 41-point landslide.[1] It is a reliably Republican state, and the last Democratic presidential candidate to carry the state was Lyndon Johnson in 1964,[2] and even Johnson won by merely five thousand votes in a national landslide. With 66.46 percent of the popular vote, Idaho would prove to be Reagan's second strongest state after Utah.[3]
