...But the Italians still vote Democrat! Fuggedaboutit!

WRONG! The most heavily Italian County in the United States (Richmond, aka Staten Island) is the only solidly Republican county downstate.

Historically, Italian Americans who owned their own businesses tended to be Republican (especially in places like Mass, Rhode Island, Illinois and upstate New York) while those who were involved in the building and industrial trades voted Democratic. Italian Americans also voted for Lew Lehrman over Mario Cuomo in the 1982 gubernatorial election.

Only is Masterchewsit.

Down in the Bronx, Queens, Staten Island, Brooklyn, and Long Island, and South Philly, our Italians vote Republican.

Quick, name a single prominent Italian Democrat from NY, NJ, or PA!
