I wouldn't call it a "landslide". A solid majority yes, but not a
landslide. A true landslide was Reagan's 1984 win. 49 states. The only
state to go Democratic was Mondale's home state of Minnesota, which he
barely won.

Or Nixon's in 1972.

These are true landslides.

Carrying 29 states and winning by a 5% margin is not my idea of a landslide.
