This site has maps of how each county voted in presidential elections from 1820 to 2020. Naturally I looked at Broome County. I was aware it was solid Republican through the years. It was back and forth for a while, but in 1856 it went Republican and continued for over a century. In 1964 it voted for LBJ, but returned to the Republicans through 1984. Beginning in 1988 it went Democratic, with the exception of 2016.
Trump and Goldwater are the two outliers in its history. Interesting that Broome disdained the second and liked the first.
