(Paging BRTD).
Generally, counties with state capitals in them tend to vote more Democratic than the state as a whole, in part due to government workers whom, even in conservative states, are more likely to either be unionized, or at very least fear cuts in government spending.
I've noticed the Dakota counties with their state capitals (Burleigh in ND, Hughes in SD) are heavily Republican even by those (Atlas) blue states' standards. Anyone know why?
