Greetings from Trump's America; Waseca County, Minnesota, where the Derek Chauvin trial is viewed through a different lens

Wikipedia 
3rd party votes:  30.4% in 1992, 17.5% in 1996. 8.8% in 2016
(George Wallace received 3.4% of the vote in 1968)

Trump received 657 more votes than he did in 2016, a 11% increase.   Biden received 658 more votes than Clinton did in 2016, an increase of 23%.

Trump's share of the vote increased by 2 percentage points.  Biden increased Clinton's share of the vote by 4.3 percentage points.  Still Trumpy, but tempered.

One other factor may be race. Like much of rural Minnesota, this county is homogeneous; Waseca County is 95% white. Historical, institutionalized, big-city issues between police and minorities simply don't register here. "It's two different worlds, with just the sheer number of people in Minneapolis," said Joe Hoehn, a lifelong resident who owns The Mill, an event venue in Waseca. "I have friends living in the Cities and they don't know the people living on their own block. ... Systemic racism, it doesn't apply here. Because we know each other."
Sidebar
Rural residents are more likely than people in suburban and urban areas to know all or most of their neighbors, but they aren’t more likely to interact with them.
