Smallest county to go for Kerry?

Probably Kalawao County, Hawai'i, although we can't know for sure.

Actually, I stand corrected.  We can know for certain; Kalawao County voted for Kerry.

The precinct is listed as casting no votes, but that's because it's a phantom polling place (probably put in there just for technical reasons).  Absentee Mail 30 (13:12) BT030 the mail total that consists the Kalawao County precinct (and serves only the county).   In basic terms, it's all vote-by-mail and the Kalaupapa Settlement precinct listed is probably just a placeholder.

In any case, Kerry defeated Bush, receiving 26 votes to Bush's 14.  So Kalawao County is the answer to this.  Unfortunately, the precinct didn't exist in 2000, and I'm not sure how it was handled back then.

While it is not the smallest county in the United States (despite its huge, continual population loss), it is the one that cast the fewest votes - Loving County cast exactly twice as many.

Wait a minute...how could there have been 80 votes in Loving County?  Doesn't the county only have 60-odd people in total?

The county has a rich history of warring political family factions.  Those factions tend to register voters who may not so much reside in the county.

At least things are better than in 2000, when an impressive 289% of the county's 18+ population voted.
