Yeah, yeah, but none of those towns are important.  Livingston's got just as many Jews and it's right around the corner from Newark and New York, making it more relevant.  And there are more famous Livingston Jews than the other places.

Certainly very atypical Jews, though. Livingston was McCain's strongest municipality in NJ other than three towns with negligible populations (Walpack in Sussex, and Pine Valley and Tavistock in Camden), more than 70% for him.

Livingston voted Obama 8,000 to 7,000.

Yeah, 

On the national level, Livingston leans toward the Democratic Party. In 2008, Democrat Barack Obama received 53% of the vote, defeating Republican John McCain.[19] Livingston has not elected a Republican on the local level since 1994.

Uh...how is it elitist to suggest Livingston is more significant than a nondescript town in the middle of nowhere or a neighborhood in another town?

We automatically filter out the permafrost in pictures we post of Minnesota.  It's kind of like the naming Greenland "Greenland" thing.

I live just around the corner from it now!

My mom was born in Frankfurt too. So were her parents. So were her father's parents.
