Vermont; there's absolutely nothing to be racist about. Smiley

Someone want to make a map where dark red = super-racist, light blue = almost no racism?

I doubt this would be possible to do very accurately without a ton of research.  There would be too much urge to insert what you'd like to be the truth otherwise. Smiley

If the criteria is different races voting differently, the top racist are
1. MS (Bush won whites 85-14, Kerry won blacks 90-10) gap of 151 points
2. AL (Bush won whites 80-19, Kerry won blacks  91-6) gap of 146 points

and the least racist is
1. DC (Kerry won whites 80-19, blacks 97-3) gap of 33 points
2. VT (Kerry won whites 58-40, not many blacks) i'm guessing a gap of about 45 points


I don't see why different races voting differently would imply that racism exists...

Er, I still don't see what this really has to do with racism... they're quantitative statistics, yes, but not about racism, as far as I can tell.
