Editing Eagle County, Colorado (section)

==Politics==

A swing county for much of the 20th Century, Eagle County trended Republican by the 1950s, and up through 1988 it was carried by a Democrat only in the national landslide 1964 election. Democrat Bill Clinton carried the county in both 1992 and 1994, before George W. Bush managed to narrowly flip it back Republican in 2000 (all by pluralities).  Since then, the county has swung heavily to the Democratic Party. John Kerry in 2004 won the first full Democratic majority since 1964. Barack Obama performed even better in 2008, and Joe Biden improved the Democratic score yet again in 2020.
