 United States presidential election, 1988 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The election on November 8, 1988 was a decisive majority for Bush in the popular vote and a lopsided majority (40 states) in the Electoral College.
Bush performed very strongly among suburban voters, perhaps owing to his campaign themes of law and order, punctuated by his criticisms of the Massachusetts furlough program.
Although his victory was a landslide, Bush in 1988 was the last Republican to carry certain states which have since gained a reputation as "blue states" that favor the Democratic Party in presidential elections.
