Ya, it voted more GOP than the state as a whole each and every time. Thanks for the additional data demonstrating that. And it is far more GOP than the district as a whole, which Bush I think only carried by about 6% or something.

I suppose it goes without saying that if you state something as if it's uncontrovertible, that naturally makes it truth....

Statewide

Bush: 58.2%
Gore: 40.3%

That's an 18% margin in case you need me to do the math.

O'Bannon: 56.2%
McIntosh: 42.2%

Bayh: 63.7%
Helmke: 34.8%

I guess it looks like the district more or less mirrors the statewide totals, so far, but here's a kicker:

District Vote

Buyer: 60.8%
Goodnight: 37.5%

Oops. No, now it looks as if Howard Co. is precisely 8% more Democratic. But, then, I suppose one might find that out just by looking at registration data & primary voting trends as I did to begin with....
