Been studying that county-by-county election map that Mike wrote about the other day?
Let's test your knowledge! Answers after the jump.
1) In which state did Barack Obama win not a single county?
Nebraska
Utah
Kansas
Oklahoma
Idaho
2) In six states, McCain did not win a single county. Which of the following is NOT one of them:
Hawaii
Illinois
Vermont
Massachusetts
Rhode Island
New Hampshire
3) Which election jurisdiction (county, city or other) voted most overwhelmingly for Barack Obama?
Washington, DC
New York County (Manhattan)
Los Angeles County
San Francisco County
Cook County (Chicago)
1) Oklahoma
2) Illinois. McCain won a substantial number of counties in the rural south of the state.
3) Washington DC. The federal district voted 93% for Barack Obama. The lopsided total was due in large part to the city's huge black population (funkster George Clinton of Parliament Funkadelic dubbed the town "Chocolate City").
Thanks for playing!
