glad to see my part of the world represented on the conservative side. Gilbert/Chandler, AZ.

This is just a dumb article all the way around. Liberals live in cities, conservatives don't.

If you want to prove the liberal bias of the msm (although this article comes off some non-mainstream website), all you have to do is notice how they constatly run articles that only look at cities with populations over 100,000 (or 50k, 500k, etc.). This is where the libs live. You couldn't pay a real genuine god-fearing middle-American to live in a big city. Zoning and hillbillies just don't get along too well.

I will, in time. I have a younger sister in South Carolina whom I’m very close to. She’s always asking me to come down, but most of my family is still here. That may change in the not too distant future, and when that does, then I’ll probably leave. That is, if this idiot in the White House doesn’t plunge us into a depression first...

It doesn’t take much of a “study” to figure this out.

Cities these day are essentially concentrated parasite nests. The cities with the most parasites, ie., people who rudely demand that thuggish big government confiscate their neighbors’ money and “redistribute” it to them, are the most “liberal”.

Cities with the highest percentage of people who work hard, pay taxes, and want government out of their faces and out of their wallets are the most “conservative”.

It’s just a matter of counting up the numbers.

“You couldn’t pay a real genuine god-fearing middle-American to live in a big city.”

Hey, I take offense at that. Not cool. HAHAHA. I live in a city with a population of anywhere from 750k to 800k. It is an extremely liberal city. Surprised it didn’t make the list.

I see what Glenn is saying, but I like Markos33’s idea better...

The last group standing gets it all, and that includes Canada and Mexico. We'll have to let a few of the libs live of course, who else are we going to put on the chain gangs to clean up the mess in the aftermath?

I could totally see us doing what Glenn says and after a short time them coming back with tails tucked between legs. I think its funny that most donor states are conservative and most receiver states are liberal.

Perhaps my comments were carelessly strong. People do have to get jobs to support their families. Sometimes you have to go where the work is.

The point is that the msm regularly runs stories that pretend that small town America doesn't exist.

No doubt. I don’t take offense easily. I should have put an /s in there. I assumed that the HAHAHA was sufficient. My mistake. I do hear you though, if I could find a job like I have now out in a country community I would be there in a heartbeat.

Maybe white conservatives need to shun birth control and have larger families.

I feel your pain. Though I’m sure not to the extent that you are.

12 Allentown Pennsylvania

Well, that's very interesting. Allentown has a large Hispanic population which has largely taken over the "central city", such as it is. I suppose a poll like this all depends on who you ask.

“NJ with 2 liberal mentions. Surprised Camden didn’t make the list.”

The list is for cities with 100,000 population. The last I heard Camden had 87,000, probably less now.

With all the phantom employees and voters in Camden, I’m sure it is well over 100,000.

Growing up in Tampa, we always viewed the beaches as more liberal. Maybe it had something to do with the size of the girls’ swimsuits.

And if anything, the radical leftist Kenyan has just pulled Blacks further to the left.

I notice that there are 3 in Orange County California. Not bad.
