I called Knott County.  They're correct.  And there were bigger swings in the country, unsurprisingly also in countries that produced coal.  The biggest was a 40-point swing to McCain in Coal County, Oklahoma.

There are only about fifty people employed in mining in Coal County.

So, it's an agricultural processing county mostly?  What's up with that?

Any idea what recounts for the ridiculous swing, Al?

I shouldn't have jumped to a conclusion from the swing size, the county name, and the county seat being at "Coalgate" Tongue
