So how did your county end up voting?

My county (Lake County, Illinois) voted republican.

80% of the country is red, it is just major cities that determine outcomes.


You may want to re-check those numbers on who carried Lake County, IL.
 
Greenville County, SC
M. Romney.........63.0%
B. Obama...........35.2%
G. Johnson.........1.2%
V. Goode............0.3%
J. Stein..............0.3%
 
Our county almost went straight George Wallace, with Strom Thurmond getting 2%.

Despite what some may believe, Strom Thurmond was awesome, and a definite friend "of the people".
 
Obama : 46.6
Romney : 51.1
Johnson : 2.3
 
Romney: 159,270 55.8%

Obama: 122,972 43.1%
 
I just noticed something very peculiar....Obama won Teton County, Wyoming (the only county he won in that state)

Teton County has the HIGHEST per capita income in America, according to Wiki.

Teton County No.1 in country for wealth
He also won 8 out of the top 10 wealthiest counties in the country as a whole.
 
In Wyoming?

Umm, yeah, in the mountains it is a bunch of expensive federal land. I know, because I studied it in order to see if we could live there.

It's also helpful to point out that most of Pennsylvania was Red, Only places with major cities was Blue. Such as Erie, Pittsburgh, Philadelphia.

Sure shows the divide we have in this country between classes and niches of people.

If most of Pennsylvania were red, then the state would be red.... Acreage nor cows vote; people do.
