Also, don't forget the 2 states Obama carried in which he lost the state's biggest city:
Virginia (Virginia Beach)
Florida (Jacksonville)
Also, Oklahoma used to be like that, but now Oklahoma votes uniformly Republican. Its biggest cities vote Republican along with the countryside.
IMO this is kind of rare because unions and poverty both are (generally) more prevalent in the cities than in rural areas, both factors that are pretty universally associated with voting for the left (note: many people in poverty vote for the right for other reasons, like in the Deep South with poor whites, but that's a different story).
