Poll question: How much of the vote did Kerry get in your home county?

If you're unsure of the percentage, http://uselectionatlas.org/USPRESIDENT is a good source of county-level data. Just go to 2004, look up your state, then scroll down until you see "County Data (Graphs)."

[Placebo]

1. 70.2% here in Cook County, Illinois

Cook County:

Kerry 70.2% 1,439,724

Bush 29.1% 597,405

Other 0.6% 12,305

4. If it weren't for Cook County,

a Democrat would have a much harder time winning IL.

If my calculations are correct, Kerry picked up nearly 50% of his total IL vote from Cook County. Bush picked up only about 25% of his total IL vote from Cook County.

Bush won the rest of the state by a margin of 54.2 to 45.0. The vote in Cook County put Kerry over the top.

In other words... thank God for Cook County. :hi:

[Placebo]

26. Yup!

Without Chicago...Democrats' hopes of capturing Illinois would be...err, tougher to say the least.

We love Nancy and Gavin, too!

Around here Repukes are considered a third party. Of course, we're just a bunch of crazy Libr'uls ... <LOL>

[elperromagico]

9. Yum... love those numbers.

21. Damn, you beat New York by .78%

I've always wondered which city was more blue.

[NYFlip]

8. In New York

Kerry got 82.1 in New York.

[elperromagico]

11. One of our most loyal counties.

:thumbsup:

18. Need to get a Dem Mayor!

How did Guiliani and Bloomberg happen? Naughty New York voters ought to be horsewhipped! ;)

[aaronnyc]

19. Voters in Queens and Staten Island often vote Republican

Republicans in New York have to be liberal on social issues to get elected though, so ours aren't really like the national GOP. They're the only Republicans in America who have it as a requirement for their job that they march in the Gay Pride Parade every year.

I couldn't stand Guiliani, but I actually don't mind Bloomberg too much. I'm not going to vote for him for reelection, but I won't lose sleep over it if he wins either.

[NYFlip]

20. I agree

I didn't vote for either. Now we all have to unite behind the dem candidate. As of now I think Freddie Ferrar(sp)is the front runner but I don't think he's doing so well.

[MisterP]

14. Orange County, the ultimate red area, in Calif., the ultimate blue state

so which martyr complex do I adopt?

[elperromagico]

15. You can always tell yourself you're "converting" them,

so perhaps you should adopt a missionary complex. :D

[SalmonChantedEvening]

16. 55.6% Blue

Montgomery County, PA :hi:

[MrSlayer]

17. 81% Kerry - 19% Chimp. Philly rules.

We might be a crude and angry bunch a lot of the time but we do know what's up as far as national politics. Our local politics leave a lot to be desired.

[recovering democrat]

22. Greetings from Clayton County GEORGIA

Kerry 70.5% of the vote in this county.

Gore only got 65% in the previous election.

There are many "blue" places in Georgia.

[Lilith Velkor]

23. 89.2%

:wow:

[Melynn]

24. Kerry 54% - Bush 45% in Franklin County Ohio

Those are the "official results." God knows how much Kerry really won by.

[BlueStateGirl]

25. 55.6% in Montgomery County , Pa.

[ultraist]

27. Kerry-Edwards lost my county by only 2%

Wake Co, NC

Too bad Kerry didn't spend much money here and basically wrote off the South. Our HQ was understaffed and our Get Out the Vote efforts were limited.

K-E did win my precinct though!

[elperromagico]

28. Kick.

[CitrusLib]

29. Kerry got 41.6%. Of course, that's if you believe Diebold

and not exit polls.
