Romney won Carson City in Nevada which was 53-44 for Romney.  Obama probably won Boise and definitely won Salt Lake City and probably Topeka.  Cheyenne definitely went for Romney.  I would also add Charleston, West Virginia might have gone for Romney although not sure.  Even Springfield, Illinois possibly did although I think Obama narrowly scraped by there.  Juneau definitely voted for Obama and by a sizeable margin too.

We determined in another thread that Obama won Charleston and Springfield handily.

Springfield probably went for Obama but it would have been close.  Unless the surrounding areas of Sangamon county went 70% for Romney which seems unlikely it would have been close.  I am guessing Romney got around 60% in the surrounding areas meaning Obama would have narrowly won it.  Kanawha county went 55-43 for Romney so unless the rest of the county went massively for Romney I think he could have won Charleston.  Lets remember it is fairly white and is not a large centre, so I don't think it is a given Obama won this unless you have the actual raw numbers.
