Minnesota went for Clinton over Trump but not by tons, and it is akin in many ways to Wisconsin and Michigan which flipped to Trump.

However, Minnesota had a caucus in 2016 (favors Sanders, and he won it) to a primary this year. Biden won. Can't really compare it apples to apples though.
North Carolina has been swingy over this century. In the 2016 primary, it went 54.5 Clinton - 40.9 Sanders.
With 77% counted tonight, it's 41 Biden, 24 Sanders, 14 Bloomberg 11 Warren.
Three Rust Belt blue 'firewall' states that flipped Dem to Trump in 2016 costing Clinton the election:
Wisconsin - votes April 7
Pennsylvania - votes April 28
Michigan - votes March 10
And perennial swing/problem/joke Florida March 17
