Sawyer is one of 23 Wisconsin pivot counties where voters flipped to Trump in 2016 after voting for Obama in both 2008 and 2012 -- a shift of 25 percentage points to the GOP side from 2008 to 2016.

In this Trump-lovin' county, Scott Walker increased his total number of votes this year by 271, boosting his percentage of the vote from 57.2% in 2014 to 59.8% in 2018.
Voters in Hayward (population 2.317), the county seat, gave Walker 54.4% of the vote. Native Americans comprise 18% of the county's population of 16,418. 25.3% of the county's residents are 65+, compared to 16.5% for the state.
An erosion of support in diverse set of cities and suburbs spelled defeat for Scott Walker. (Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, 12/22/2018)
By this measure, the state as a whole shifted almost 7 points in a Democratic direction between 2014 (when Walker won a second term by 5.7 points) and 2018 (when he lost his bid for a third term by 1.1 points).
