It's Northeast Louisiana. Check the fun with racial voting - LA edition thread. Smiley

You obviously haven't looked at many counties in Mississippi.
Not any counties this white in Mississippi.

I think there were a few counties in Mississippi were McCain's vote share equalled or was greater than the percentage White and considering Obama got over 90% and in most cases over 95% of the Black vote never mind turnout amongst them was high if not higher, so I suspect there were some pretty racially polarized counties there too. 
Yes, of course. Almost everywhere in Mississippi that's less than 65% or so White is this racially polarized.
But not any heavily White parts.

Strange, I always think of LaSalle as the center of Louisiana rather than the NE, but maybe I'm just odd.

I didn't think Louisiana has a Center. Huh (I mean, you got Northern Lousiana - anywhere north of Cajunland - which obviously has a northwest looking more towards Texas and Shreveport and a northeast looking more towards the Mississippi River, and arguably a center as well in places like Winn Parish; and then you got the Cajun parts , which are the Southwest; and then you got New Orleans and the places on the Mississippi between it and Baton Rouge; and then you got the Florida Parishes, leaving you with, what? for a Center? Either Baton Rouge and its immediate surrounds, or nothing at all. I've never really thought of any place as situated in central Louisiana. And you can put your hand down, Mister. Tongue )
