Bison's just trolling. I don't think he/she is this out of touch.

SK,
Yes agreed, I am right. MN is a blue state because more Minnesotans voted for Hillary than Trump. Or, equivalently, more Minnesotans voted against Trump than voted against Hillary.
Either way, you lose. Minnesota wins.

She is trying to find her security blanket...think safe space. Otherwise, she has nothing and can't move forward in life.
Give her the blue state thing...she needs it to keep from going postal.

My county voted for Clinton - the only suburban county of a big city in Texas to do so. Clinton won Dallas, Houston, San Antonio, Austin, El Paso and the far southern counties, but otherwise everything else went red as expected.

You in Fort Bend or Brazoria?
If I was in Brazoria County, don't you think I'd be Brazoria County Owl instead of Fort Bend Owl? Although to be fair, I almost moved to Pearland before settling here in Missouri City.
The weird thing to me about Fort Bend County is they did go for Clinton by a healthy enough margin (51 to 45 pct.), and more Democrats cast straight tickets than Republicans in the county (about 7500 more than the Republicans). But in the numerous judicial races in the county, every single one of them went Republican. Most were won by the slimmest of margins (anywhere from 1000 to 3000 votes on average).
Obviously Fort Bend County isn't as conservative as Brazoria or Montgomery County (northern Missouri City, Stafford, Rosenberg and parts of Houston in Fort Bend are overwhelmingly minority in terms of population), but it's weird how more people voted for Republican judges than Trump.

Duke,
If more Virginians voted for Hillary than Trump, then the entire state is a blue state. Sorry
Hillary supporters are few and far between outside Richmond, Norfolk and NoVa.
JMU is located in a deplorable part of the state. Bison would be served to not go South or West of Dulles.

That is where you are wrong. Other than a week I spent in the Rockies with a cheerleader chick from Augustana? College 20 years ago  , I've never given Minnesota second thought.
So no, I don't lose.

BANG! Another reason why Minnesota wins!

Quote:Voter turnout dropped in Minnesota, yet it was strong enough that the state has likely regained its No. 1 spot.
About 74 percent of eligible voters in Minnesota cast a ballot in Tuesday's election, preliminary numbers show, bolstered by expanded early voting.

We get it. Omar is Muslim. Enough said. Further questions would be, ah, disrespectful.
