RE: Proud of Minnesota (and others)
van,
It seems rational to me. Hey, if anything it's just my loss, right? And by the way, I did say that I would give myself Miami, since Dade overwhelming was blue. The rest you mentioned ... have equivalents or superior analogs in blue states. Utah to Colorado, for example.
bullet,
But votes aren't allocated based on the sq ft of land we own. Sorry, but that's not how it works. That Hillary voters tend to live closer together, is irrelevant with regard to the number of votes they receive.

200k convicted felons were granted the right to vote in a Hail Mary attempt.

If more people in the state voted for Hillary than voted for Trump, then the state is blue. People don't get more votes based on the number of sq ft they own.
Look at the MN map. 90% of it is red outside of 2 blue areas. Its a red state with a highly populate blue blotch. Same with NV

solo,
Correct -- more people who are Minnesotans voted for Hillary than Trump. It's a blue state.
That Hillary voters choose to own smaller pieces of land and choose to live closer to each other, is irrelevant to the number of votes they're allocated.

Yes, but more Minnesotans voted for someone other than Hillary than voted for Hillary. What does that do to your line of thinking?

Trump/Johnson/McMullin combined to take 50.5 percent of the Minnesota vote, while Clinton/Stein combined for 47.8 percent.

Imagine Bison's meltdown if McMullin hadn't been on the ticket. That alone would have turned MN red.

More than 55% of Minnesotans voted against Trump. Love it!
200 #89,
Of course it wouldn't have. Anyone Minnesotan who voted for a guy that was only running in Utah, obviously was protesting Trump.
he was on the MN ballot so obviously your statement is incorrect.
Anybody voting for McMullin was a fairly strong conservative. Now do you really think they would have picked Hillary over Trump if McMullin wasn't on the ballot?

It's really simple: why would I give my tourism dollars to a red state? I sure as heck am not going to reward them for doing the wrong thing. Most of those states don't have much worth seeing, though. So it's not a big issue anyway.
you do realize many blue states are red states with a splotch of blue somewhere due to a big city. See Minnesota
Hillary won his beloved Minnesota 2% lol

200,
They were all protest votes against Trump. Doesn't matter if they wouldn't have picked Hillary, they weren't picking Trump.

Using your convoluted way of thinking 53% voted against Hillary

RE: Proud of Minnesota (and others)
Congratulations, Bison.. you just showed yourself as being among those liberal elites, who hate everyone and everything.
Quote:There honestly is nothing else in the country that's worth half a dog turd.. It's all farms, factories, and a whole lot of uneducated people. Bleh.
That is just shameful of a statement. Because apparently in your eyes, much like Orwell wrote: "All animals are equal, just some are more equal than others"?
I'll tell you what, lock yourself in your ivory tower, and have NOTHING to do with any of those "uneducated" people, who are so apparently beneath you, and let's see how long you last.
I'd be real interested in seeing how you're going to do in terms of supplies, protection, law enforcement, etc.
