NYC had 25 ED's (electoral districts) that voted for McCain at a 90% rate (minimum 100 votes total) plus a few that would be 90% if you take out the independent candidates, and 1 that was short of 100 votes but would have still had 90% even if Obama would have got the missing votes.
Is there any other city in the United States with even 50,000 people that had an ED vote for McCain at a 90% rate?
If this thread can stick to discussing election results as statistics, rather than candidates and politics, it can stay in this forum. Otherwise, it is off topic here.
This thread is misleading!! Just because a few neighborhoods of NYC voted for McCain does not mean the whole city did! Would you also call NYC a total ghetto because it has the poorest Congressional district in the country?

sorry when typing the title I forgot to put in ED, if it's possible to change a tittle can this be put instead
was there any city besides NY in the US with a 90% ED for McCain?
Location: northern Vermont - previously NM, WA, & MA

smells like an agenda to me. A polarizing one at that. The mod is right, it's off topic in this forum, belongs in a political one.
Is there any large city outside of the deep Southeast, Utah, and possibly San Diego that actually is conservative? I know that here in Michigan, the large cities always swing the vote to make us look like a blue state, but when you look at a detailed political map of our state, it is overwhelmingly red...everywhere but in and around the larger cities.
