Hamilton County, Ohio

[TDAS04]

Cincinnati is pretty right-wing for a major city outside the South. However, Hamilton County had a reasonable showing in the anti-gay marriage vote in 2004. 56% to ban gay marriage, only behind Athens, Franklin, and Cuyahoga.

That's interesting.  Suburban Republicans seem to be considerably less anti-gay than people in rural areas.  It's an issue where the urban/rural divide seems especially prominent.
