Top Ten Conservative American Cities
10. Cincinnati, Ohio Home of GOP Rep. Steve Chabot (ACU lifetime: 98%; 2005: 96%) who won his seat by campaigning for the balanced budget amendment and against abortion.
9. Boise, Idaho Boise's 2nd District is described as "one of America’s most Republican districts" by The Almanac of American Politics.
8. Mesa, Ariz. Founded by Mormons. Republican Jeff Flake (ACU lifetime: 94%; 2005: 96%), who led the fight for Arizona's charter school law and favors eliminating the income tax and creating a national sales tax, represents Mesa’s district.
7. Clarksville, Tenn. Home of Fort Campbell (though the Post Office is in Kentucky, a majority of the base is actually in Tennessee).
6. Wichita, Kan. Has sent Republican Rep. Todd Tiahrt (ACU lifetime: 97%; 2005: 96%) to the U.S. House since the 1994 GOP revolution when he defeated longtime Democratic Rep. Dan Glickman.
5. Colorado Springs, Colo. Location of the Air Force Academy, Fort Carson, Peterson Air Force Base and Schriver Air Force Base.
4. Abilene, Tex. City's 19th District is represented by Republican Rep. Randy Neugebauer (ACU lifetime: 93%; 2005: 100%) who defeated longtime Democrat Rep. Charlie Stenholm.
3. Oklahoma City, Okla. Very much a pro-oil city. According to The Almanac of American Politics, "Oil rigs were pumping crude on the grounds of the then-domeless Capitol until 1989; a derrick still stands sentinel outside the governor's window."
2. Plano, Tex. Has one of the most conservative congressmen, Republican Sam Johnson (ACU lifetime: 99%; 2005: 96%), who opposes all pork, was a founder of the conservative Republican Study Committee.
1. Provo, Utah Represented by Republican Chris Cannon (ACU lifetime rating: 97%; 2005: 100%). Home of conservative Brigham Young University. Named "Most Conservative City" by non-partisan Bay Area Center for Voting Research in 2005.

Ahhh, sorry but this is way way out of date.
Chabot lost last November, and nobody thats actually HERE would EVER AGAIN classify Cincinnati as a ‘Conservative City’.
Nothing could possibly be further from the truth.
Sorry to hear that.
No cities for me, even conservative ones. Not in this current environment. I’ll take my chances out in the boonies. Safer for the family.
It was an email from a gloating liberal friend of mine a few minutes ago...the Collins/Snow/exSpecteroate thing has really tipped me over...
Wichita is fairly conservative but for years kept that radical leftist in the house. Darn for some reason I have a mental block and can’t recall his name. He was defeated in the 94 elections.
Pensacola, Florida is probably more conservative than any city listed. Panama City is likely even more conservative than Pensacola.
There's no place like home. Woohoo!
“Pensacola, Florida is probably more conservative than any city listed. Panama City is likely even more conservative than Pensacola.”
Both military cities with a huge veteran population.
Lubbock Tx used to be on that list, then freaking Natalie Maines started flapping her jaw. She isn’t welcome home ever again.
“Lubbock Tx used to be on that list, then freaking Natalie Maines started flapping her jaw. She isn’t welcome home ever again.”
Yeah, but you had Buddy Holly...
I saw it coming in 2000, and moved two counties away. Now I just sit back and shake my head.
Cincinnatti? Cincy is a free-fire zone. Don’t know how that made the list. The People’s Republic of Ohio is sinking fast, we should rename from “the buckeye state” to “the nanny state.”
As soon as I retire I’m out of this rat-hole state.
I’d move there in a split second!! Have had feelers out for something there for quite awhile!
Militant
Then you can tell your gloating liberal friend that you don’t appreciate fraud like he and his kind do, and cite this email.
Sonds like what happened in NH when all the Massholes moved there to get away from the taxes they voted in...
Boise, Idaho citizens voted to rip the 10 Commandments display out of the public park in 2006.
NOT CONSERVATIVE, but RINO (which by the way, tastes a lot like PORK)
“Boise, Idaho citizens voted to rip the 10 Commandments display out of the public park in 2006.”
To quote Blazing Saddles, “Well, I am DEPRESSED. What in the wide wide world of sports is going on here???”
Ironic, isn’t it?
“Then you can tell your gloating liberal friend that you don’t appreciate fraud like he and his kind do, and cite this email.”
Nah...let him keep the illusion it’s still true...better for him to keep thinking about it...good guy, just really misguided...
none in MN. I am not surprised.
