| I grew up in Nassau County. While it isn't as conservative as it used to be (when growing up the term "Nassau County Republican" ran off the tongue pretty easily, and the Republicans dominated the politics), there are places that are a LOT more liberal. |

| I guarantee you Detroit isn't exactly a hotbed of wealthy anybody--liberal, leftist or otherwise  Nor, I wager, is Newark.

Brings to mind one of my favorite Samuel Langhorne Clemens quotes*, “Therr are three kinds of lies: lies, damned lies, and statistics.” *According to Wikipedia, Twain attributed it to Benjamin Disraeli, but it didn’t show up in any of his writings and the earliest known use is after Disraeli‘s death. Oh well, still a good one. |

"Causality" perhaps? I suspect that religious differences, or the influence of anti-vaccination local persons may have more to do with it than wealth. flashguy
