Anytime you see a map of the US with "preference by county", go ahead and pull up a map of the US at night from space next to it.
You'll see that once choice is generally where electricity is, and the other choice is where it's dark.
Mostmaps people use to make some point, especially some political point, turn out to just be population density maps.
Which is why the overlay in this instance is so troubling.
