The media wants us to believe that there are 1000's of Zel Millers living across North Florida, who voted for Bush, but otherwise usually vote Democratic.
However, this myth is not necessarily based in reality. A look at the counties that are in the Heart of Florida's Dixieland, you will see actually voted for KERRY!
So next time someone claims Bush won Florida because of the Dixiecrats, here's evidence that they didn't. Besides even if they all did vote for Bush, there isn't enough of them to have given this state to Bush. Not with his big lose in the Hispanic vote.
Gadsden 6,253/Bush 14,629/Kerry
Jefferson 3,298/Bush 4,134/Kerry
Leon 51,594/Bush 83,830/Kerry
plus Madison was very close
Madison 4,196/Bush 4,048/Kerry
All four counties are in North Central FL on the FL/GA border.
