How red is Baytown Texas?
Would like to know.

From Citizens' Journal on MSNBC, the first one on this page is from the wife of a military recruiter. Seems her husband is getting a lot of negative comments and verbal abuse when he calls and wants to speak to someone's kids.

Here's the link - read "Feeling Caged".

1. Industrial (working class) part of Houston - on the Ship Channel.

Home of a HUGE ExxonMobil refinery (The largest in the country)

I'd say pretty red. Their US Rep is RW (ted Poe).

2. I worked across the channel from there for about a hundred years.
Definitely a blue collar town.
