I already posed similar question, which I think needed to be revised.

The last time the most and the least populous counties voted for the same candidate was in 1984, when they both chose Reagan.
The last time both counties supported a Democrat was 1964.

Democrat.  Loving County would be easier to flip than Los Angeles County simply because the former has less voters to win over.

Lol. I guess a democrat can convince 40 or so people in Loving County to vote for them if they visit the entire county and meet people face to face.

Very true. Face to face interaction is how Carter won the Iowa primary back in '76. I don't see why a Democrat would have trouble winning Loving County if they poured their heart into that place Smiley

Because 30 out of those 40 voters would be like "How do you feel about abortion?", and when the Democrat gave the wrong answer it would be over.

Kalawao County is the least populous county according to census estimates.

Democrat. The demographics of Loving County could change much easier than the Los Angeles or our the alignment of our entire political system. Even if the GOP won the Hispanic vote, they'd still lose Los Angeles County.

Yes, even Arnold lost LA County.

We could just have a few Occupiers move in and build a commune in the desert, right?
