These new tax policies also arguably curbed several existing tax loopholes, preferences, and exceptions, but Reaganomics is typically remembered for its [[trickle-down economics|trickle down]] effect of taxing poor Americans more than rich ones. Reaganomics has (along with legislation passed under presidents [[George H. W. Bush]] and [[Bill Clinton]]) been criticized by many analysts as "setting the stage" for economic troubles in the United States after 2007, such as the [[United States housing bubble|Great Recession]].<ref name="christian science">{{cite news |title=A historic victory.

All 50 states and [[Washington, D.C.|the District of Columbia]], were part of the [[1984 United States presidential election]]. State voters chose 24 electors to the [[United States Electoral College|Electoral College]], which selected the [[President of the United States|president]] and [[Vice President of the United States|vice president]] of the United States. [[Illinois]] was won by incumbent United States [[President of the United States|President]] [[Ronald Reagan]] of [[California]], who was running against former [[Vice President of the United States|Vice President]] [[Walter Mondale]] of [[Minnesota]]. Reagan ran for a second time with former [[Director of Central Intelligence|C.I.A. Director]] [[George H. W. Bush]] of [[Texas]], and Mondale ran with [[United States House of Representatives|Representative]] [[Geraldine Ferraro]] of [[New York (state)|New York]], the first major female candidate for the vice presidency. As of [[2020 United States presidential election in Illinois|2020]], this is the last time a Republican presidential candidate won over 1 million votes in [[Cook County, Illinois|Cook County]], the state's most populous county. The presidential election of 1984 was a very [[Partisan (politics)|partisan]] election for Illinois, with over 99% of the electorate voting only either [[Democratic Party (United States)|Democratic]] or [[Republican Party (United States)|Republican]], though several other parties did appear on the presidential ballot in the State.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://uselectionatlas.org|title=Dave Leip's Atlas of U.S. Presidential Elections|publisher=Uselectionatlas.org |access-date=2013-11-11}}</ref> Nearly every [[list of counties in Illinois|county]] in Illinois voted in majority for Reagan. One notable exception to this trend was [[Chicago]]'s highly populated Cook County, which voted in majority for Mondale, albeit with a 2.6% margin, or 51% to 48.4%. 1984 marks the last time any presidential candidate won Cook County with a single-digit margin, and the last election that a Republican won over a million votes in that county. Illinois weighed in for this election as 4 percentage points more [[Democratic Party (United States)|Democratic]] than the national average. {{As of|2020|11|alt=As of the [[2020 United States presidential election|2020 presidential election]]}}, this is the last election in which [[Jackson County, Illinois|Jackson County]] voted for a Republican presidential candidate.<ref name="how">Sullivan, Robert David; [http://www.americamagazine.org/content/unconventional-wisdom/how-red-and-blue-map-evolved-over-past-century ‘How the Red and Blue Map Evolved Over the Past Century’]; ''America Magazine'' in ''The National Catholic Review''; June 29, 2016</ref> Reagan won the election in Illinois with a decisive 13 point landslide, carrying all but five counties. No [[Republican Party (United States)|Republican]] candidate has received as strong of support in the American [[Great Lakes region|Great Lakes States]], at large, post-Reagan. While Illinois typically voted conservative at the time, the election results in Illinois are also reflective of a nationwide reconsolidation of base for the Republican Party which took place through the 1980s; called by Reagan the "second American Revolution."<ref name="raines"/> This was most evident during the 1984 presidential election. Notably, this is the closest to date that a Republican has come to carrying Cook County, home to [[Chicago]], since [[Richard Nixon]] won it in [[1972 United States presidential election in Illinois|1972]]. Mondale took 51% of Cook County's vote to Reagan's 48.4%. ==Primaries== The primaries and general elections coincided with those for other federal offices ([[1984 United States Senate election in Illinois|Senate]] and [[1984 United States House of Representatives elections#Illinois|House]]), as well as [[1984 Illinois elections#State elections|those for state offices]].<ref name=PE/><ref name=GE/> ===Turnout=== Turnout in the state-run primary elections (Democratic and Republican) was 37.25% with a total of 2,254,503 votes cast.<ref name="PE">{{cite web |title=OFFICIAL VOTE Cast at the GENERAL PRIMARY ELECTION MARCH 20, 1984 |url=https://www.elections.il.gov/DocDisplay.aspx?doc=Downloads/ElectionOperations/VoteTotals/Archived/1984/1984%20PE.PDF |website=www.elections.il.gov |publisher=Illinois State Board of Elections |access-date=24 April 2020 }}{{Dead link|date=February 2021 |bot=InternetArchiveBot |fix-attempted=yes }}</ref> Turnout during the general election was 74.48%, with 4,819,088 votes cast.<ref name="GE">{{cite web |title=OFFICIAL VOTE Cast at the GENERAL ELECTION NOVEMBER 6, 1984 |url=https://www.elections.il.gov/DocDisplay.aspx?doc=Downloads/ElectionOperations/VoteTotals/Archived/1984/1984%20GE.PDF |website=www.elections.il.gov |publisher=Illinois State Board of Elections |access-date=24 April 2020 }}{{Dead link|date=February 2021 |bot=InternetArchiveBot |fix-attempted=yes }}</ref> State-run primaries were held for the Democratic and Republican parties on March 20.<ref name=PE/> ===Democratic=== {{Infobox election | election_name = 1984 [[Illinois]] Democratic presidential primary | ongoing = no | previous_election = 1980 Illinois Democratic presidential primary | previous_year = 1980 | next_election = 1988 Illinois Democratic presidential primary | next_year = 1988 | votes_for_election = | type = presidential | country = Illinois | election_date = {{Start date|1988|03|20}} | candidate1 = '''[[Walter Mondale]]''' | image1 = [[File:Vice President Mondale 1977 closeup.jpg|150x150px]] | color1 = 567953 | home_state1 = [[Minnesota]] | popular_vote1 = '''670,951''' | percentage1 = '''40.43%''' | delegate_count1 = | candidate2 = '''[[Gary Hart]]''' | image2 = [[File:Gary hart (1).jpg |150x150px]] | color2 = a59400 | home_state2 = [[Colorado]] | popular_vote2 = 584,579 | percentage2 = 35.23% | delegate_count2 = | candidate3 = '''[[Jesse Jackson]]''' | image3 = [[File: Jesse Jackson (a).jpg |150x150px]] | color3 = 73638c | home_state3 = [[Illinois]] | popular_vote3 = 348,843 | percentage3 = 21.02% | delegate_count3 = | map_image = | map_size = 280px | map_caption = }} The '''1984 Illinois Democratic presidential primary''' was held on March 20, 1984 in the U.S. state of [[Illinois]] as one of the [[1984 Democratic Party presidential primaries|Democratic Party's statewide nomination contests]] ahead of the 1984 presidential election. {| class="wikitable sortable plainrowheaders" style="text-align:right;" |+ style="background-color:#f2f2f2;margin-bottom:-1px;border:1px solid #aaa;padding:0.2em 0.4em;" |1984 Illinois Democratic presidential primary<ref name=PE/> ! style="text-align:left;" |Candidate !Votes !% !Delegates |- | style="text-align:left;" | [[Walter Mondale|Walter F.

All 50 states and [[Washington, D.C.|the District of Columbia]], were part of the [[1984 United States presidential election]]. State voters chose 24 electors to the [[United States Electoral College|Electoral College]], which selected the [[President of the United States|president]] and [[Vice President of the United States|vice president]] of the United States. [[Illinois]] was won by incumbent United States [[President of the United States|President]] [[Ronald Reagan]] of [[California]], who was running against former [[Vice President of the United States|Vice President]] [[Walter Mondale]] of [[Minnesota]]. Reagan ran for a second time with former [[Director of Central Intelligence|C.I.A. Director]] [[George H. W. Bush]] of [[Texas]], and Mondale ran with [[United States House of Representatives|Representative]] [[Geraldine Ferraro]] of [[New York (state)|New York]], the first major female candidate for the vice presidency. As of [[2020 United States presidential election in Illinois|2020]], this is the last time a Republican presidential candidate won over 1 million votes in [[Cook County, Illinois|Cook County]], the state's most populous county. The presidential election of 1984 was a very [[Partisan (politics)|partisan]] election for Illinois, with over 99% of the electorate voting only either [[Democratic Party (United States)|Democratic]] or [[Republican Party (United States)|Republican]], though several other parties did appear on the presidential ballot in the State.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://uselectionatlas.org|title=Dave Leip's Atlas of U.S. Presidential Elections|publisher=Uselectionatlas.org |access-date=2013-11-11}}</ref> Nearly every [[list of counties in Illinois|county]] in Illinois voted in majority for Reagan. One notable exception to this trend was [[Chicago]]'s highly populated Cook County, which voted in majority for Mondale, albeit with a 2.6% margin, or 51% to 48.4%. 1984 marks the last time any presidential candidate won Cook County with a single-digit margin, and the last election that a Republican won over a million votes in that county. Illinois weighed in for this election as 4 percentage points more [[Democratic Party (United States)|Democratic]] than the national average. {{As of|2020|11|alt=As of the [[2020 United States presidential election|2020 presidential election]]}}, this is the last election in which [[Jackson County, Illinois|Jackson County]] voted for a Republican presidential candidate.<ref name="how">Sullivan, Robert David; [http://www.americamagazine.org/content/unconventional-wisdom/how-red-and-blue-map-evolved-over-past-century ‘How the Red and Blue Map Evolved Over the Past Century’]; ''America Magazine'' in ''The National Catholic Review''; June 29, 2016</ref> Reagan won the election in Illinois with a decisive 13 point landslide, carrying all but five counties. No [[Republican Party (United States)|Republican]] candidate has received as strong of support in the American [[Great Lakes region|Great Lakes States]], at large, post-Reagan. While Illinois typically voted conservative at the time, the election results in Illinois are also reflective of a nationwide reconsolidation of base for the Republican Party which took place through the 1980s; called by Reagan the "second American Revolution."<ref name="raines"/> This was most evident during the 1984 presidential election. Notably, this is the closest to date that a Republican has come to carrying Cook County, home to [[Chicago]], since [[Richard Nixon]] won it in [[1972 United States presidential election in Illinois|1972]]. Mondale took 51% of Cook County's vote to Reagan's 48.4%. ==Primaries== The primaries and general elections coincided with those for other federal offices ([[1984 United States Senate election in Illinois|Senate]] and [[1984 United States House of Representatives elections#Illinois|House]]), as well as [[1984 Illinois elections#State elections|those for state offices]].<ref name=PE/><ref name=GE/> ===Turnout=== Turnout in the state-run primary elections (Democratic and Republican) was 37.25% with a total of 2,254,503 votes cast.<ref name="PE">{{cite web |title=OFFICIAL VOTE Cast at the GENERAL PRIMARY ELECTION MARCH 20, 1984 |url=https://www.elections.il.gov/DocDisplay.aspx?doc=Downloads/ElectionOperations/VoteTotals/Archived/1984/1984%20PE.PDF |website=www.elections.il.gov |publisher=Illinois State Board of Elections |access-date=24 April 2020 }}{{Dead link|date=February 2021 |bot=InternetArchiveBot |fix-attempted=yes }}</ref> Turnout during the general election was 74.48%, with 4,819,088 votes cast.<ref name="GE">{{cite web |title=OFFICIAL VOTE Cast at the GENERAL ELECTION NOVEMBER 6, 1984 |url=https://www.elections.il.gov/DocDisplay.aspx?doc=Downloads/ElectionOperations/VoteTotals/Archived/1984/1984%20GE.PDF |website=www.elections.il.gov |publisher=Illinois State Board of Elections |access-date=24 April 2020 }}{{Dead link|date=February 2021 |bot=InternetArchiveBot |fix-attempted=yes }}</ref> State-run primaries were held for the Democratic and Republican parties on March 20.<ref name=PE/> ===Democratic=== {{Infobox election | election_name = 1984 [[Illinois]] Democratic presidential primary | ongoing = no | previous_election = 1980 Illinois Democratic presidential primary | previous_year = 1980 | next_election = 1988 Illinois Democratic presidential primary | next_year = 1988 | votes_for_election = | type = presidential | country = Illinois | election_date = {{Start date|1988|03|20}} | candidate1 = '''[[Walter Mondale]]''' | image1 = [[File:Vice President Mondale 1977 closeup.jpg|150x150px]] | color1 = 567953 | home_state1 = [[Minnesota]] | popular_vote1 = '''670,951''' | percentage1 = '''40.43%''' | delegate_count1 = | candidate2 = '''[[Gary Hart]]''' | image2 = [[File:Gary hart (1).jpg |150x150px]] | color2 = a59400 | home_state2 = [[Colorado]] | popular_vote2 = 584,579 | percentage2 = 35.23% | delegate_count2 = | candidate3 = '''[[Jesse Jackson]]''' | image3 = [[File: Jesse Jackson (a).jpg |150x150px]] | color3 = 73638c | home_state3 = [[Illinois]] | popular_vote3 = 348,843 | percentage3 = 21.02% | delegate_count3 = | map_image = | map_size = 280px | map_caption = }} The '''1984 Illinois Democratic presidential primary''' was held on March 20, 1984 in the U.S. state of [[Illinois]] as one of the [[1984 Democratic Party presidential primaries|Democratic Party's statewide nomination contests]] ahead of the 1984 presidential election. {| class="wikitable sortable plainrowheaders" style="text-align:right;" |+ style="background-color:#f2f2f2;margin-bottom:-1px;border:1px solid #aaa;padding:0.2em 0.4em;" |1984 Illinois Democratic presidential primary<ref name=PE/> ! style="text-align:left;" |Candidate !Votes !% !Delegates |- | style="text-align:left;" | [[Walter Mondale|Walter F.
