Bump
I saw Milk today and they said it lost by 2-to-1, but had it carrying Imperial with 69%. Otherwise it looked like a standard social liberal/conservative mix except it lost in Glenn. wtf? Oh, and it was also two-to-one no in Los Angeles despite being almost 70% in Imperial? And then there was something about the results vs. the "polls," and I got totally confused
Anyway, if anyone knows, I'd be very interested...
If it only won Shasta by a hair one imagines it went down hard.
Imperial County is the most populist county in California. 61% Obama, but 70% Prop. 8.
Yeah, way Hispanic, but my point was it coudn't have failed 2-to-1 statewide with that map (even if it did lose Glenn?!) and failed 2-to-1 in Los Angeles while it won 2-to-1 in Imperial. L.A.'s Hispanic community isn't that pro-gay now, and it certainly wasn't then
Prop 6 also lost in Orange County, which was far more conservative than it is today.
