How about basing which county is most conservative on the voter's opposition to same-sex marriage?
Of all the states that held referendums on the subject, Mississippi voted the most heavily to ban same-sex marriage (86% statewide vote in favor of banning it), and of all the counties in the state of Mississippi, the one that voted most heavily in favor of banning it was Itawamba County -- 94% in favor of banning it in the state constitution. That was a referendum held in November, 2004 -- with much higher turnout than when Texas held its referendum on the same subject, which was November, 2005, and in Texas, the county with the highest margin of vote against same-sex marriage was Martin County, 95.4% against.
