My hometown is AWFUL!!! : 0

I suppose this is the right thread to brag once again that my hometown actually voted for Barbara Buono over Chris Christie last year, kinda like Massachusetts in 1972.

I mean, it's pretty Democratic these days, but it didn't used to be, and Christie crushed, so I was pleasantly surprised.

Neener neener.

What's your hometown? I want to see by how big a margin.

Bloomfield, in Essex County.

Wow, 61.77% to 37.00%.

Wow!  I didn't realize it was that lopsided for the forces of good.  I feel like Obama only hit the mid-60s both times back home.  I guess where I grew up is one of those inner-ring old suburbs that is getting less and less white at a pretty fast clip, and the whites that are there are less and less conservative Italians and more young liberals that can't afford to live in neighboring Montclair... but damn that's a surprise that it was so resilient for the Dems.  With those numbers they ought to break 70% at the next Presidential.
