Who won your town/city?

[Alcon]

Thanks Alcon.  The number of votes cast in the three precincts add up to the total number of votes cast in Kimball.  It's funny that so much fewer votes were cast in Precinct 1 than in the other two precincts, particularly Precinct 2.  That leads me to believe that there was some attempt to coordinate the precincts with the boundaries of election districts to some state or county office, and that Precincts 1 and 2 are in different districts.  Just a little over a third of the votes cast for President in Kimball in 2004 were cast in Precinct 3, so my guess is that precinct was intentionally drawn to include about a third of the registered voters in Kimball.  My guess is that Precinct 3 is the the same election district as one of the other two Precincts, probably Precinct 2, for whatever office Kimball's precincts were drawn to conform to the district lines.  I'll see if I can find out what the scoop is.

That seems reasonable.  Many counties here attempt to really break down precincts, so that there is only one ballot per precinct.  We don't have a township system, and have unincorporated areas that are serviced by different districts.  You oftentimes end up with precincts with just one or two people, or even none, to assure that this is possible.

It turns out that Kimball Township in St. Clair County, Michigan is divided among County Commissioner districts, but it is actually Precinct 3 that is in a different district from the other two precincts.  See http://www.stclaircounty.org/Offices/boc/map.asp .  All three precints are in the same Congressional, state House and state Senate districts.  I'm not sure if the town of Kimball is divided among any other type of election district, although I'd guess not.

[Q]

Do you live in Bridgeport, New Haven or Hartford?

New Haven.

I live in Fairfield, not far from you.  We're actually getting our own Pepe's soon, a clone of the famous pizzeria in New Haven.  Have you ever been there, and what do you think of it?

Very much overrated.

Thanks.  I suspected so.

Q, do you go to Quinnipiac University?

No - I go to the college closest to Pepe's.

So, what is the scoop in Kimball, Michigan?

There are three precincts in Kimball, which is mostly rural, with a couple of housing developments.

Precinct 3 votes for a different county commissioner.

Precincts 1 and 2 vote for the same offices.  They vote in the same building.

Precinct 1 is the eastern half of the blue section on the map Kevinstat posted, precinct 2 the western half.

[Dr. Cynic]

My town is EXTREMELY Democratic, For our own precint there are only TWO registered Republicans, a married couple.

The town pop is about 5,000 give or take a thousand. There are a total of 164 Republicans out of the voting pop. I register on my birthday in a month and nine days, to join with the majority party,  lol.

The two railway (?) stops in the two-precinct district make me think the two precincts might represents two population clusters.

Through googling/what I knew I got all the people in your banner except one, Sarnstorm. Whose that in between Bernie Sanders and Harold Ford?

Jack Carter from Nevada...I know that he won't win or really even come close but I just admire him as a person.

[Redefeatbush04]

Bush won by quite some margin. They actually almost named our town's new high school "Ronald Reagan High School", located conveniently near Reagan Lane and Eisenhower Drive. The town is along the far suburbs of Trenton, right where cookie-cutter suburban neighborhoods meet farmland. I believe the proper term is exurbs.

[Bdub]

Kerry won my town but I forgot by how much.

Where are you getting this information from? Do any other Calif. counties have results by city?

[Serenity Now]

For where I currently live:

General Election 2005: Brighton Kemptown

(Lab) Des Turner: 15,858 39.9
(Con) Judith Symes 13,121 33.0
(Lib Dem) Marina Pepper* 6,560 16.5
(Grn) Simon Williams 2,800 7.0
(UKIP) James Chamberlain-Webber 758 1.9
(Peace Party) Caroline O'Reilly 172 0.4
(Soc. Lab) John McLeod 163 0.4  
(Ind.) Elaine Cooke 127 0.3
(Soc. Alt.) Phil Clarke 113 0.3  
(Ind.) Gene Dobbs 47 0.1

This is now a pretty marginal seat, and You get a lot of candidates in Brighton...

*This is the same Marina Pepper (otherwise known as Marina Baker) who was a page 3 girl and playboy model.

The Kerry counties are very poor and very Hispanic.... especially Huron.

My mother lives in Clovis, btw. I live in Fresno.

No, a red island in a sea of blue. You're on Dave Leip's Atlas of US Presidential Elections. Get with the program.

Nice site, Lewis. Looks like Fresno and Anaheim are the only ones of Calif's ten largest cities to vote for Bush.
