Bellwether, is that really a thing?

[Rev. Rye]

If that’s true, it must have stopped sometime before 1960, because I’m looking at the results history since then, and the 2000-2016 results are the longest streak I could find. And 1992 is the only election where the Libertarians scored above a major party candidate, and George H.W. Bush still beat Andre Marrou 15-5. (And Perot beat Clinton 8-2.) If you can find alternate numbers, I’d be willing to see them.
