Blue State/Red State distribution of DUers.....

[marmar]

Because I love pointless stats and graphs, I'm curious as to what portion of DUers reside in the so-called blue states and red states (based on the 2004 vote). Granted, I think 2008's map will be much bluer.
I'm in Michigan, one of the few, the proud, the blue from 2004.

[Maddy McCall]

1. I'm blue in Mississippi.

:hi: Interesting poll. :thumbsup:

[HeeBGBz]

41. Count me for Mississippi Blues. n/t

[sutz12]

2. Interesting...

how the Blue states got the red bar in the poll.

:)

[marmar]

5. Very true....

:)

[JTG of the PRB]

3. Boulder, Colorado

A blue county in a red (at least in 2004) state.

[Bjornsdotter]

4. Blue state, RED area

....very red where I live, but it is starting to change ever so slowly as more people move here from the Chicago area.

Cheers

[ginnyinWI]

31. me too!

Nobody around here has Dem stickers on their car except me. Wisconsin is light blue but my county is very very red--someone said it is the county with the most repub votes in the nation. That's because most red counties are sparsely populated and rural, while metro areas are blue. My county is a commuter county near Milwaukee so is more densly populated than the average red county. (sigh.) Sensenbrenner is our rep!

[XemaSab]

6. Purple

n/t

[elocs]

7. We can never have to many polls.

It's nice to see one that is not a Democratic presidential nominee poll, but I'm sure one will be come up any minute now.

[NoPasaran]

8. Blue county in a red state

Austin, Texas
:dem:

[DCKit]

21. Along those lines, I've been wondering where the Oases are in the Red states.

Is this worth a thread?

BTW, I'm a HUGE fan of Austin and San Antonio (from what I've heard).

[DefenseLawyer]

9. Indiana

So red we have our own distinct shade of red.

[ms liberty]

10. I'm red I guess, although NC is actually more of a purple state...

lots of Dems on the state level and some in the House.

[me b zola]

11. Light blue state, dark blue city...Portland, OR

[marmar]

15. I think that's the case in many of the blue states....

When you look at the overall state map, red dominates. But those deep blue conurbations drag them kicking and screaming into the light.

[Colobo]

12. Florida

[mmonk]

13. North Carolina.

[mnhtnbb]

32. Me, too. We're turning it blue in 08 for Edwards!

[Blackhatjack]

47. When WRAL/N&O Polling Indicated Edwards Would Win In NC, Reality Hit ...

North Carolina is no longer a Red State. That is saying a lot given the numerous military bases here, and the voting record for Bush in the last 2 election cycles.

[OHdem10]

14. Blue City in Red State OHIO

It seems Ohio is maybe purple --someday Blue again

[marmar]

20. Yes, the 2006 election in Ohio was an eye-opener....

I hope the track continues.

[MadBadger]

16. Representing Jersey and University of Wisconsin.

[TwilightGardener]

17. Nebraska--pretty dang red

[asjr]

18. A Blue woman in a Redneck state.

[marmar]

40. Keep up the good fight!

:dem:

[Pirate Smile]

19. Iowa is purple. Blue in 2000/ red in 2004. I just don't think of it as red.

I can't, I wont x(

[BreweryYardRat]

22. Florida.

Thank God even our idiots weren't crazy enough to elect Katherine Harris.

[skipos]

23. Blue state, Dem Governor, 2 Dem Senators, blue city, Dem congressman.

Ann Arbor, MI. It is pretty nice here. If I ever move, I'll have a tough time being able to move to a red state or a red town.

[marmar]

24. Who is the congressman for Double A? Is it Dingell?

n/t

[skipos]

26. Yes. I think he is pretty good too.

Our mayor is a Dem too. Repubs don't even bother running around here for the most part.

[Marrah_G]

25. Blue as blue can be!

No amount of money could get me to move to a red state.

[rep the dems]

27. Another proud blue state. Pennsylvania.

[skipos]

29. A bit off the subject, but how the hell did Santorum get elected there?

He seems more appropriate for Mississippi, not PA.

[rep the dems]

49. I really don't know. I was very young when he won his first Senate

race, and it was during the '94 Republican Comeback so that might have had something to do with it.

[AZ Criminal JD]

28. Alabama here

I am in about the only blue area of the state - Birmingham

[unsavedtrash]

35. bama here too

:hi:

[TygrBright]

30. Ex-CUSE me. Some of us are from PURPLE states.

As in, New Mexico.

Purple.

Absolutely purple.

adamantly,
Bright

[njdemocrat106]

33. Blue state, blood red county with a Repuke congressman

Repubs pretty much infiltrate every aspect of local government where I live.

[Staph]

34. I'm from the so-called red state of West Virginia

with two blue senators, two out of three blue congressmen, a blue governor, a blue state senate and a blue state house of delegates.

Red and blue are absolutes that don't necessarily exist in the real world. Well, except for Utah and Massachusetts.

[tularetom]

36. Very red part of a blue state

CA's central valley and sierra foothills.

[Alexander]

37. Arizona is like freeper heaven.

Fake cowboys, alcoholics, and crazy gun owners are everywhere. Hardly anyone gives a shit about the poor here, and racism is just as alive and well as in the Deep South.

People have told me my hair is "too long". They were not kidding, and at least one of them was trying to pick a fight, responding to his own comment with "You probably think my hair's too short, don't you?"

I've never heard that complaint before, not even when I went to Utah.

[Lorien]

38. Red state, blue area

Orlando, FL.

[Tierra_y_Libertad]

39. Greenish-Blue in Blue WA.

Registered and usually vote Dem unless the nose-holding becomes too painful.

[Thothmes]

42. Tidewater area of Virginia

[maine_raptor]

43. Living on an island of red in a blue state..........n/t

[Nutmegger]

44. Does Connecticut still count as a blue state?

LIAR/LOSERman, Repuke Governor...

Well we did get rid of Johnson and Simmons and almost got rid of Shays plus we have great Congress-persons (DeLauro, Larson, Murphy and Courtney) and a super-majority in the state legislator.

I can live with our repuke governor but LIARman is a continued embarrassment to this state's fine name. Every day I wonder if there are LIARman supporters who regret their vote. He puts me to shame. I'm sorry America.

[MadHound]

45. Yay! More devisive Red/Blue crap, when ALL states are some shade of purple

Gee, way to play into that RW/MSM media trap! Good job:eyes:

[MrSlayer]

46. My city (Philly) is Blue enough to push my state (PA) to Blue status.

It's basically a red state with two strong blue areas. If we make the wrong choice in 2008 PA goes red.

[TwilightGardener]

48. Yep, I'm originally from Pittsburgh, and it's like James Carville said--

Two big blue cities on either end with a whole lotta Alabama in between!

[ElizabethDC]

50. Florida

is where I'm registered to vote (though I go to school in DC). Unfortunately, it's been increasing in its redness over the past few elections.:-(

[Forkboy]

51. Nice to see it so evenly spread.

A good mix :)

[tnlefty]

52. Red state, really red area.

Oh, that's the sound of me pulling my hair out! :hi:
