Indianapolis metro area
From a 17.2 percentage point Republican advantage in 1984 to a 29.1 percentage point Democratic advantage in 2020. That's quite a swing.
3rd party votes: 18.6% in 1992, 8.7% in 1996. 6.4% in 2016
(Alabama segregationist George Wallace received 10.5% of the vote in 1968)
Trump received 3,815 more votes than he did in 2016, a 3% increase. Biden received 34,873 more votes than Clinton did in 2016, an increase of 16%.
Trump's share of the vote decreased by 1.1 percentage points. Biden increased Clinton's share of the vote by 5.5 percentage points.
