Although we like to talk about reds states and blue states, a more telling patterns emerges when looking at the counties.
There are ~3,000 counties in the U.S. 2,500 of them vote Republican; 500 vote Democratic. The US vote though is split roughly 50/50 because the 500 Democratic counties are located in urban areas while teh 2,500 Republican counties are sparcely populated.
Q: Why?
Is there something about cities that drives Americans to the left. Is there something about the countryside that drives Americans to the right?
Or are Dems attracted to cities while Repub's are exiled to the hinterlands?
