    Uhhh what? I’m rural and the vast majority will still vote red all the way down, including for Trump. The voting democratic maps are widely available. And they show conclusively that cities vote blue and rural votes red, everywhere. Plenty of conservative rural folk very much dislike Trump, they aren’t happy with the GOP, but they would rather not vote or vote third party than ever vote blue.

        I guess I was too focused on the topic of the title. It did literally just end the piece saying rural will always vote red. I misinterpreted “rural people shouldn’t vote red; so one might assume that could mean they are open to blue”.

      You should have read the article before proving its point lmao. Did you know you can delete your own silly little comment?
