The South still belongs to the conservative Republicans.
Funny you should say that, because most of the South has
long term deep rooted Democratic Party control over all
local gov't, commissions, sheriffs, etc etc. However, when
it comes to national politics, the Republicans get the
majority of seats (except for native sons like Carter,
Clinton, etc). Funny thing, we are just now seeing the
waning of the old Dixiecrats who turned Republican; I think
there is a trend towards Democratic voting.
I voted in a Southern precinct and there were exactly four
Republicans on a 2 page ballot... of course, much of it was
non-partisan stuff like judges & utility commissioners...
but there were more Democrats running unopposed than
Republicans.
Just thought you should know the facts
