I think so. There's something to be proud of. Smiley

Over 86% for Obama. Can anyone top that?

No, you do not. I was one of the proud few in my precinct.

The magic of a five-voter precinct (split 4-1 Obama in the primary; 3-0 Obama at the caucus, IIRC).

Mine might be. Our precinct is supermajority black. I don't have the data, though.

I don't know about precincts but my county (which is over 80% white) voted 77% for Obama.

The unique misfortune of the Palestinian refugees is that they are a weapon in what seems to be a permanent war...today, in the Middle East, you get a repeated sinking sensation about the Palestinian refugees: they are only a beginning, not an end. Their function is to hang around and be constantly useful as a goad. The ultimate aim is not such humane small potatoes as repatriating refugees.

I might, but I doubt the numbers will be that high.

Considering that I live in a fairly typical blue-collar, poor, traditional dFL precinct, going 2-to-1 for Obama was pretty surprising.. especially since there was so much Clinton campaign stuff there and almost nothing for Obama.
