Arkansas: Did Obama win Fayetteville?

[RedSLC]

Yes, he did. Thanks to the conveniently named precincts on the county clerk website, you can tell than Obama did in fact win Fayetteville. The reason Washington County went R was because of the suburban vote. Fayetteville went for Obama because it's home to the University of Arkansas, a major university.

He won it 52-43. Not much enthusiasm for either candidate, as turnout was only about 40% and third parties got 5%.

I think Gary Johnson managed to win a very sparsely populated precinct in the county that only cast one vote.

Thank you.

I also just found out that Fayetteville was also one of three Arkansas cities outside of the Delta region that Obama carried in 2008, along with Little Rock and Eureka Springs.  I guess those are the three liberal dots in the state.

Eureka springs apparently has a large LGBT population for a town of its size, and its city council has actually passed a resolution endorsing marriage equality.
