I’d love to see crime rates, tax rates and the economic status of each city government.

My bet is crime and taxes are high for the “liberal” cities and that they also are the most mismanaged economically.

Interesting, thanks.

If Texas withdraws from the Union, that will leave the remainder of the US with even fewer conservative cities. That might be good for Texas, but hard on what remains of the United States.

I have lived in the Seattle area since 1989. At the time it was ranked as America’s “most liveable city.” I can tell you now it is rapidly descending into an inner city dump, just like the ones I used to know in the northeast. And they’re on the most liberal list, too.

Most states didn’t have any cities on the most conservative list, but California had seven. Hmmmmm....

Interesting California had the most, "Most Liberal" (4) 3 north, 1 south

And California had the most "Most Conservative (7) all south

Break up California in to Northern and Southern and the Southern part has a chance

Can you really have meaningful comparisons between places like Detroit and Peoria, Arizona. I’m not even certain all of those sites on the conservative list actually qualify as “cities”.

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.

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.

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

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.

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