North of Rockland and Westchester counties, Trump won by 100K.
“North of Rockland and Westchester counties, Trump won by 100K.”
That is surprising because even upstate the population centers of Buffalo, Rochester, Syracuse, Utica and Albany still out vote the rural areas. There is still a recession going on in places like Binghamton and a lot of the other rural parts of NYS. It surprises me that the Plattsburg area way up in the NE corner is a blue county. It does not surprise me that Ithaca/Cornell county is Blue.
