“Buckeye can correct me if I’m wrong, but I believe that the last time Pittsburgh elected any Republican to office was back when Herbert Hoover was president.”
I guess it was a little more than a year after Hoover LEFT office. An interesting little factoid is that Hoover actually carried Pennsylvania, mainly due to the Pittsburgh area, in his unsuccessful re-election bid in 1932, along with five other states, all in the northeast.
