Liberals like expensive ski towns, and the mountains. Republicans and mostly flatlanders.
In other words, another Vermont.
What is it with resort areas in the last 30-40 years that have steered them to the left? Obviously, Aspen and Telluride were never as Republican as Stowe and Martha's Vineyard had been because they were mining towns before becoming ski towns, but Jackson Hole, Wyoming (Teton County) seems to be a more recent Democratic swing, as it used to be a strongly Republican county (it voted for Goldwater, for example). What was the primary industry in that county before Jackson Hole took off?
