SO, who won what in the Iowa Counties?? I decided to have a look....

[1corona4u]

Here is a map showing who won each county;



That made me curious as to what cities/roads were nearby, so I did an overlay;




A couple of other interesting observations; the farther west the win for Obama, the smaller the gap between him and the winner. Most of the 'wins' were between 10 & 300 votes. In the counties to the east, the gap between him and the 2nd place candidate were much larger;

Linn County; 2891
Johnson County; 3885
Black Hawk County; 1727
Story County; 1069
Polk County(Des Moines);3848
Scott County; 2678



Interesting indeed.

3. It's the sound I image you'd make...

...when reading the Letter on each County from Left to Right...

Sorrry, I had a long day, and my sense of humor gets kinda...odd when I'm this tired.

4. I'm not a deep thinker.

What's interesting?

6. Which would be why you support Obama.

[Catherine Vincent]

7. I support Obama, Edwards and Hillary. I'm torn between all three.

Tell me what is interesting about that map, please.

8. What they are TRYING to say...(and trying to insult you in the process)

...is many of those counties that Obama won are off major interstates. GET IT? Obama bussed in thousands of voters to win! It's all a sham, I tells ya...

...or MAYBE the fact is that those highways tend to go through major centers of population (such as Des Moines, Davenport, Cedar Rapids, Ames, Waterloo, etc.), and Obama has more supporters in Urban and Suburban areas than Edwards or Hillary, whose appeal is more populist.

To the OP--ever consider the fact that YOU'RE the dumb one?

[Catherine Vincent]

9. Is that what the poster is implying?

Thanks. And I did pick up on the insult. I guess he thought I was a staunch O supporter.

[Bicoastal]

10. Well they didn't posit it very well--I never would have guessed this was an anti-O post...

...until he made that comment.

Then I looked at the counties Obama won, and the OP's insistance on pointing the Interstate system....and it just clicked.

12. It's she.

[1corona4u]

11. Obviously I considered it, since I put the overlay on it, DUH....

LOL

Hey, you're free to think what you want. Someone asked in another thread about what counties Obama won, and I did the map.
