Reply #35: Albany (NY) County - 60% Kerry, 38% Bush, 2% Nader [View All]

Thank God I live in a BLUE state and in a BLUE area! Saratoga County, North of Albany voted 53% Bush and 45% Kerry. Chemung County, the redneck county in NY that I grew up in went 54% Bush, 43% Kerry.

Places I've Lived:

Erie County (NY): 56/42 Kerry

Onondaga County (NY): 54/44 Kerry

Pima County (AZ): 52/47 Kerry

San Diego County (CA): 52/47 Bush

People assume all of CA and NY are very Liberal, but San Diego County and a large portion of Upstate New York are quite conservative. People bought into the dogma and garbage that monkey-boy and crash-cart were peddling this past year. I heard more "I hate Bush, but I can't vote for Kerry -- sooooo, I'm voting for Bush. The more you talked to these people, the more crap they spewed. Because sex-offender O'Reilly and Rush the Druggie said it was true, it was gospel.

My wife works in Saratoga County. When she crossed the county line, she got stares, middle-fingers, people screaming at her, swearing at her and one even fake-running her off the road due to her bumper stickers. My car got spit on the day after Black Tuesday. We each have a Kerry/Edwards and a W with a circle/slash through it. She has a "PROUD TO BE A DEMOCRAT". That's it! Yet, it's enough to enrage certain people.

I wish there was more we could have done to win this election in such a convincible fashion that no amount of box-stuffing could change the result. Alas, with this administration and its lackies the media, we'll be hard pressed to make the case.
