Really? All the working/middle class areas here in Jersey voted for Obama. And it was the rich areas (Hunterdon, Sussex, Warren, Morris, Ocean counties) that went red.

The studies I read found that the 250K+ income category voted for Obama. The red counties in NJ may be affluent but still the majority of voters in those counties have household incomes below 250K.

Who voted for hussein obama. Communists, Socialists, Marxists, America haters, union thugs, liberal teachers, far left liberals, illegal immigrants, the groupies and the ignorant, the people looking for handouts and freebees, the "legalize drugs" crowd.
Heres an example---
