Analysis
There was significant protest voting against Biden in rural counties. These voters are likely Democrats In Name Only who tend to vote Republican in most elections, but remain registered as Democrats.[7] Biden carried the state by a strong margin but would lose Cimarron County to Dean Phillips, who received a plurality of the county's vote.[8]
