my hometown of Memphis: Shelby County, TN
2000:
Gore 56.42%
Bush 42.09%
2004:
Kerry 57.50%
Bush 41.91%
Interestingly enough, my county was the only county in Tennessee that Kerry did better than Gore.
There's an obvious explanation though: white flight to either neighboring counties Desoto, MS or Fayette, TN. Also, as of (I believe) 2004, Shelby County is now majority black.
My college Auburn University: Lee County, AL
2000:
Bush 58.63%
Gore 39.08%
2004:
Bush 62.70%
Kerry 36.38%
Auburn is an overall conservative college, and Lee Co. is about as Republican as the state
