Interesting that Macon County wasn't even one of Obama's top 5.

You guys are making too big of a deal out of these numbers ( Iam concerned about LA). Most of the other southern states are not as racist as some of you are making them out to be.

Then why did Obama win 10 and 11% of whites in Alabama and Mississippi respectively[qm]

What's with Williams county, Ohio? It's a standard rural county isn't it?

North Carolina still confuses me, it's the exception big time. You can't attribute Obama's strength there to ONLY metropolitan areas and higher black turnout like you can in Virginia. Well maybe you can, but he at least held his own with previous candidates in the other areas. Basically what I'm saying is:





Obviously the fact that Obama at least spent money in NC is one factor but still.
