PLay Guess the Region (Beyond Red vs Blue)
The following description depicts a certain voting region:

"This is the whitest of our 10 regions, with a population 6 percent black and less than 3 percent Hispanic, and also one of the poorest. It ranks first in the number of households making only $25,000 to $50,000 per year, and it's first in the number of adults who have finished high school but have gone no further in their education. It is the only Republican region with lower-than-average population growth."

Which is it?

a) El Norte

b) Farm Belt

c) Sage Brush

d) Appalachia

The answer is "b".
