Title: Most densely populated counties to vote for Romney Post by: nclib on February 18, 2013, 07:39:09 PM Here's McCain, which aside from Richmond, NY (Staten Island), should be a good guideline.
Not positive about the order, but these counties all have densities over 1,000 people/sq. mi. Richmond NY Orange CA Colonial Heights city* VA Cobb GA Tarrant TX Va. Beach city VA Gwinnett GA Salem city VA Jefferson LA Waynesboro city VA Lynchburg city VA Bristol city* VA Monmouth NJ Seminole FL Anne Arundel MD Johnson KS Duval FL Morris NJ Tulsa* OK *McCain broke 60% Title: Re: Most densely populated counties to vote for Romney Post by: Benj on February 18, 2013, 09:42:25 PM Lake County, Ohio has a density above 1,000 p/sqm and switched to Romney in 2012. I think it's the only one. The only other county that switched that I found that comes even close to 1,000 p/sqm is Chester County, Pennsylvania, and it's only in the 700 p/sqm range. Maybe some independent city in Virginia.

Title: Re: Most densely populated counties to vote for Romney Post by: nclib on February 23, 2013, 12:22:40 PM You left out Maricopa County which I think is the largest county he won. This is density (per sqm) not population. Maricopa County is so spread out, that it does not have that high a density.

Not even close. Title: Re: Most densely populated counties to vote for Romney Post by: Maxwell on March 21, 2013, 01:46:31 AM Highest percentage? Tulsa county.
Title: Re: Most densely populated counties to vote for Romney Post by: memphis on March 21, 2013, 07:05:03 PM I'm guessing densest precinct would be in Boro Park?
Title: Re: Most densely populated counties to vote for Romney Post by: Benj on March 21, 2013, 07:20:42 PM I'm guessing densest precinct would be in Boro Park? More likely South Williamsburg, which I think is denser. The Crown Heights Hasids are also possible, though I think there were only a couple Romney precincts there. But precincts are weird, and there could be a freakishly dense, Republican precinct pretty much anywhere.
