New York, but I’ve only seen NYC.

I’ll admit, most people I talked with aren’t even sure why they vote that way. A good friend of mine lives in Brooklyn and it seems more of a mob mentality.

The last time that I visited Maryland I actually saw some middle aged white men wearing Obama t shirts.

Lord.

Outside the NYC metro area, NY is a red state. Look at the county by county voting map from the 2016 election. Maryland and Vermont are up there, although both currently have Republican governors.

On my visits to NYC, I couldn't really discern liberal vs. conservative. But, I definitely picked up on a vibe that celebrities and big wigs are thought of as royalty. Like, if you get to see one, you should be grateful and adore them like angels. Very weird, and I suspect that's a personality trait more applicable to liberals than conservatives.


I also spent some time in Buffalo at a time when their economy wasn't doing so hot. Very blue collar city. Other than the public union guys I was working with, who were proudly bilking the system, the regular folks seemed pretty normal. Again, I never really detected a "liberal" vibe.

Asheville, N.C., was saturated with leftist vibe.
