I love it when the anti-Dixie Freepers bring up the fact that the South voted for Carter in 1976. That’s the only presidential election in the past forty years where the South voted mostly for the Democrat (who ran as a conservative, by the way), and they dredge it up. It doesn’t bother them that the Northeast voted mostly Democrat in most of the elections during that same time frame, including the past four elections where they voted almost unanimously Democrat. The fact that the South did so once, thirty years ago, is unforgivable and proves Dixie should be tossed aside by the Republicans.

Heh, yeah, that's not possible. There's quite a number of White liberals in Salt Lake City with nothing comparable in MS (save perhaps the pig-ignorant backwoods hillbillies that think the GOP is the party of Sherman, Blanche Bruce and Hiram Revels).

"is there any state more Utah than Utah besides Mississippi?"

I'm thinking Idaho, but they're having a leftist element move in. Boise is getting taken over.

"btw....blacks used to be 38% in my home state...has it goen down and why?"

Used to be higher than that, as with South Carolina, both states once had overall majority Black populations (reflected in the Reconstruction era political representation), but from that period on, the Black population declined as there was obviously going to be little opportunity and, of course, the blatant oppression and racism, which led most to move North to places like Detroit, Chicago, St. Louis, etc (whereas SC and East Coast Blacks moved to Baltimore, Philly, Newark & New York). Especially after the Great Flood back in the '20s, that sent huge numbers of Blacks out of the state (that red section of the map above in the Delta used to have counties with far greater populations 70-80 years ago than they have today). I would think the numbers are probably levelling off. Of course, there are a lot of Whites fleeing Memphis and swelling the population of some of the northern MS counties adjacent, so that might be enough to tip it a point.
