The title says it all.

My least favorite is probably Guilford.

For NJ, I can't think of anything particularly interesting or good about Gloucester.

NY and PA are trickier.  Eh, let's go with Nassau for NY and Dauphin for PA, but those aren't very strong feelings and they're based on pretty incomplete info.  Well, actually nevermind, my dislike of Nassau is plenty well-founded. Tongue

Broward (though Palm Beach and Dade are in the running as well).

Broward (though Palm Beach and Dade are in the running as well).
All three are awful; Miami is Miami, Broward reminds me of a hybrid of an industrial park and a planned community, and Palm Beach is filled with wealthy hypocrites.

All three of the counties in the pan-handle. (counting myself as a Republican here)

This one's a tough call.  Maybe Livingston or Hillsdale.

Halifax, though any Obama county in rural eastern North Carolina minus the coastline will do.

Juneau County because while it voted for Obama in the Presidential race, it voted for Thompson due to a favorite son effect in the Senatorial race.

Dem areas:
Parts of Lake, which is my home county.

Gary, Indiana, in particular, is absolutely atrocious.                             
GOP Areas:
No idea as the only areas in Indiana I've been in much are blue except my home town

One of those rural and boring ones in western Minnesota that were also quite bigoted in regards to same sex marriage. Let's go with Chippewa.

Every county in my state voted for my party, so I'll go with my least favorite overall, which is Norfolk.

Hardeman, though it's not any better or worse than the few dozen other rural West Tennessee Counties. It's just a largely unsettled void that voted for Obama because it has a large black percentage, and the Whites aren't quite as monolithically Republican as they are in Mississippi. There's not even an interstate highway, just the lightly traveled US 64, so they don't even get much commerce from people passing through. Granted it's not as bad as some places in the Mountain West or Great Plains, but I think it's hard for people from more populated parts of the country to wrap their minds around how isolated places like this are.
