Has anyone seen this: Election Map by county

Original post by CubanBride

Even in NY and California, Bush won most of the counties. He just didn't win the most populated ones. I find that very interesting.



This is from USA today a day or so ago.

What's the difference? Votes were obviously close all over the country.

no difference ...we are just commenting how low the percentage actually was for Kerry...and in my case much lower than expected

according to CNN on wed morning when i watched to see what was going on..they reported 59%. this i am certain because my FH kept saying it over and over...

ETA...oopps that was the NY percentage, i guess not LI specific



That's what I thought but I didn't want to say that. I too was suprised that he only won NY by 59% to be honest - I really thought it'd be at least 65% or so.

To me the difference is that it's like LI is its own little country compared to the rest of NY state, very conservative.

It was merely an observation though.

More like metropolitan NY is like it own country. I think the city folks cancelled LI out. Folks are pretty conservative upstate.

It is all relevant...half the counties Bush won had only a couple hundred people in them. Not exactly a grand number.
