Well no surprise about the Post. I still think towns like North Andover should not be in the same district as Lawrence. I'm sure there are other examples as well. Counties really have little meaning in Mass - a form of Gov't that should probably be eliminated from the budget. I think looking at individual towns would give you more of an idea of how people voted. Unfortunately I couldn't find such a map.

LOL. The election results are reported by County and there are county officials who are elected on that basis. Just admit that you were wrong about your statement that, "I believe Bush won one out of thirteen counties and came real close in two other rural counties" and move on. We all make mistakes. No need to rationalize them.

Here's a city and township map of Massachusetts: http://www.sec.state.ma.us/cis/cispdf/ma_city_town.pdf

For the city and township in presidential elections, go to http://uselectionatlas.org/

and click on Election Results, then on General by Year and select 2004 or 2000 or whatever you want, then click on Massachusetts in the map, then click on Township, and then you can select townships by cliking on the names of the counties. BTW, North Andover gave Bush 49.89% and Kerry 48.94% in 2004.

Let me know if this doesn't work, since perhaps you need to be a paying member to carry out some of these steps.
