The Midwest

The Midwest is a region in the central United States, spanning from Ohio and Michigan in the east, through the Great Lakes region, and the northern Great Plains, to its western border of Montana and Wyoming. The region will reach four seats in the House of Representatives following the census, from three seats, and includes the states of OH, MI, IN, IL, WI, MO, IA, MN, NE, SD, ND, WY, and MT.

Partisanship
The Midwest is typically left-leaning in elections, predominantly electing candidates from the Democratic and Workers Parties. It voted for Democrat Andrew Yang over Republican Greg Dover in the 2020 election and the 2024 election. The region contains a notable amount of Communist Party and Workers Party members, in addition to Democratic and Republican voters; this was Workers Party Presidential candidate Jack Macklin's strongest region in 2024, in terms of first round votes.
