Why is the DC-Baltimore area so lopsidedly blue?

« on: April 28, 2020, 05:00:08 AM »

Why is the Washington DC are so deep blue? No other huge metro area aside from the Bay area is as lopsidedly blue as Washington DC-Baltimore. It is more DEM than the NY Metropolitan area as a whole. What factors contribute to its solidly-blue leanings?

The deep blue Bay Area is redder than DC-Baltimore.

Nah, in 2016 Clinton won 73% in the whole bay area compared to 66% in the entiriety of DC-Baltimore area.

Does this include Napa, Solano, and Sonoma Counties?

A-huh, Alameda, Contra Costa, Marin, Napa, San Mateo Santa Clara, Solano, Sonoma and the City of San Francisco to be precise.

73% Hillary - 19% Trump.
