Predict your home county

Some of you guys live in solid democrat counties.  At least in a competitive districts, they mean something.

Believe it or not, a vote cast in a solidly Democratic county has the same weight as one cast in a swing county. Who knew!

I mean, if you're a Republican voting in a solid Democrat county, what's the point of voting? Might as well live somewhere else.

There are some really ritzy libertarian suburbs in there.  Also a lot of the rural west if you're a nature lover.
