re: #86 BongCrodny

After the 2004 election, a wingnut friend forwarded a red/blue map of the U.S.; it pretty much was a sea of red dotted with blue islands.

My first thought was: “Awesome. Let me know when geography gets the right to vote.”

If you show voters, rather than counties won, the map is purple all across.

But yeah, Democratic voters tend to cluster in urban sprawl. And a whole lot of land can be painted red by the fact that Fred, AND Jerry, AND Sue AND Mitch AND Miranda in Hanging-On-The-Ledge South Dakota all voted for McCain.
