The 1980 United States presidential election in Virginia took place on November 4, 1980. All 50 states and the District of Columbia , were part of the 1980 United States presidential election . Virginia voters chose twelve electors to the Electoral College , which selected the president and vice president of the United States.
Virginia had voted Republican at all but one of the previous seven presidential elections, largely due to its large white Washington and Richmond suburbs that received large-scale in-migration from the traditionally Republican Northeast, [ 1] alongside the Shenandoah Valley , [ 2] being amongst the first traditionally Democratic areas of the former Confederacy to turn Republican at both the presidential level and in federal congressional elections. [ 3] After the collapse of the Byrd Organization and the expansion of the state's formerly small electorate via the Voting Rights Act , these trends intensified except in the heavily unionized coalfield portions of Southwest Virginia , where unlike elsewhere in the former Confederacy, many newly registered poor and working-class whites voted Democratic. In addition to voting Republican in six of seven presidential elections, the state's Congressional delegation would gain a Republican majority as early as the 91st Congress . Nevertheless, it was 1970 before significant GOP gains occurred in the state legislature, and it was generally acknowledged that President Nixon offered no support to down-ballot Republican candidates as he was carrying the state by a landslide margin against George McGovern , [ 4] who lost every county or city in the state except Charles City .
Campaign Republican nominee, former California Governor Ronald Reagan and Democratic candidate and incumbent United States President Jimmy Carter of Georgia both campaigned in Virginia during early October. [ 5] Independent state Senator Harry F. Byrd Jr. , who like his father had never previously endorsed a presidential candidate, would endorse Reagan in the middle of October, saying that Carter had a dismal record in controlling federal spending and the Soviet military build-up. [ 6]
59% of white voters supported Reagan while 33% supported Carter.
