Title: Warren County (Vicksburg), MS Post by: RBH on December 04, 2012, 03:05:00 PM Went for Obama, making him the first Democrat to win the county since JFK and the first Democrat to win the county with a majority since FDR (not counting Thurmond as a Democrat for the purposes of this question).
It went 58-42 Bush, 51-48 McCain and 50-49 Obama. So it might be moving in a similar direction as Hinds County (which went Bush in 92 and Clinton in 96) in a few years Title: Re: Warren County (Vicksburg), MS Post by: DINGO Joe on December 04, 2012, 08:02:54 PM Well, in the case of Hinds it's white flight to Madison and Rankin, whereas in Warren it's just a steady increase in A-A voters participation. Maybe Adams county (Natchez) would be a better comp.
