I'm surprised Denton, TX is in there. It contains a college town.

I'm surprised Texas is such a Republican state.  It contains Austin.

Not to mention a lot of Hispanics and big cities.

Which accounts for mid-40's placement by obama. The overwhelmingly and gargantuan republican suburbd combined with uber gop north and west texas balances tthe rest.

Conversely, is there a list of the most sparsely populated/rural counties that are Democratic? I realize it could be a lot more time consuming, but many rural counties don't vote Democratic.

There'll be a considerable number, actually. Southern black belt, western hispanic and/or Native American majorities. Native American counties in the midwest, a number of traditionally Democratic counties in the upper Midwest (primarily Wi, IA and MN, plus a couple in the UP), Hawaiian counties other than Oahu, plus a number of mostly western ski resort counties.
