New York


NEW YORK LOVES HILLARY !

Just a big old fashion landslide last night for both parties. New York loves New Yorkers. 

I was a happy politics nerd pig in poop last night, up way too late rolling around in pure numbers.
DIG IN yourself if you like or I'll save you some time. White guys under 40 voted for Bernie, pretty much everyone else voted for Hillary. But, then there is this map.

This map was getting all sorts of guff from folks on the internet ( of all places ) this morning.  " How could Bernie have lost ?!! It must be freud, I mean, just look at this map, it is all Sanders Green . " Said by folks that do not live in New York. 

Before we dive into how many people live in the blue areas of this map, lets discuss how many folks do not live inside these red circles.


This is New York

 But so are these, and most of the state, all these green areas look much more like these shots around here, than the hustle and bustle of NYC.


 It is just peoples perceptions. Blue areas full of people all piled up on top of one another. Green areas - some cities , but a whole lot of cows. And they dont vote.
