This map is misleading.
As an example, Duval county Florida is dark purple with 32%, while neighboring Clay county is only 27% (medium purple).
Many of Duval county’s evangelicals are black and vote for Corrine Brown and Bathhouse Barry. Most of Clay county’s evangelicals are strong Conservatives and wouldn’t p!ss on Brown and Barry if they were on fire!
Yup, these maps usually are.
There are few inconsistencies if you do a side-by-side comparison with the red/blue political map. Nonetheless, I place little stock in these types of maps anymore.
Good point.
I wonder why Bledsoe Co., Tennessee, is lighter than the counties around it. Its voting record in 2008 was similar to the countries around it (roughly 2-1 for McCain over Obama). I don’t have the 2012 figures handy.
People will have to go to the source to see the map. It won’t post here.
ANYthing with MORMONs included in it is 'misleading'!
