Poll question: Do you live in a red or blue state?
By red or blue, I mean going by the 2004 Presidential Election results - where blue=Kerry and red=Dimson.

My state, Pennsylvania, is slightly blue.

2. My county, Montgomery, is getting better

Still more Repukes than Democrats, but many of the Repukes here are suburban moderates who could go Democratic if the choice is right.

7. What county do you live in?
In central PA, State College and Johnstown are about the only refuges. And outside of State College, Centre County is still pretty red.

4. I live in the very blue Conch Republic of the Florida Keys,
but they tell me that up on the meanland, the rest of the state is more red-dish. But I don't really believe that. I think it's just a case of cheating politicians and fixed voting machines.

6. I live in one of the bluest
areas of one of the 5 bluest states. (Hooray for Hollywood...) :bounce:

But back in 2004, I lived in the only purple area of a very red state.

I've moved up in the world!

12. Yep, and let's hope Corzine gets a chance!
Liberals like me might not agree with everything in his budget plan, but at least he's taking on the problem head on.

Everyone is criticizing him, but how else do you solve a deficit? Forrester would have made it worse.

22. I lived in Hackettstown for 1.5 years.
Warren County is way scarier than Morris County. Morris County is comparitively very liberal.

24. Wow, that's how the gay club at Centenary met.
I quit going because they were the most frightened, self-loathing queers ever. You had to call a number and give a secret gay code or something just to find out where it was being held. Then, everytime a non-queer walked past the room, everyone would shut up. Lame.
