Wainwright County

Upland textiles area with a growing amount of commuters and retirees. Mostly small towns but with a large-ish suburban area (mostly middle class to upper middle class) in the northeast of the county. Large Evangelical population. Traditionally a modestly affluent area.
Republican, silly. Ever more so.

Traditionally very Democrat. Either still very Democrat, or (perhaps less likely) not Democrat in presidential elections anymore, but still very much so in local elections. Oh, and the few elected Republicans might well be Tom Coburn clones. Tongue

Democrat for President, mixed, perhaps even Rep-dominated (Depends on traditions) further below.

Spa Township

A very rich town surrounded by rich agricultural areas. Increasingly a base for affluent commuters and has no real industrial base.
Sounds like Boston, strong Dem.

No...except arguably for the "rich town" bit this sounds very un-Bostonish.
More like...say...Lancaster PA.

Worstedopolis sorta depends on its traditions...might be like Cincy or Memphis, very polarized along racial lines at all levels. Or might be like Philly, ultra heavily Dem on the federal level, much much less so (but still a Dem lead) on the local level.
Cobblers is heavily Rep. The older core might still be voting Democrat.
