The white vote in Mississippi is like Utah.
yes....i did mess up the general %...an oversight...trying to catch up here in late night free time
Not exactly. In MS, it's almost entirely on racial lines with little overlap (61% White, 37% Black). If UT voted the same way, it would be literally 90%+ GOP (94% White, 1% Black). They voted 72% for Dubya to Kerry's 26%. Of course, there was one county in UT that voted 90% for Dubya to 10% for Kerry (Rich County, a rural county bordering on Wyoming). I guess that's as close to heaven on Earth as you can get for Republicans. ;-D
