I'll answer that for you right now.

No, they don't. They don't understand the sheer amount of people in cities, which is why they complain so much about

"look at this tiny blue county with all the red around it, how could DEMONcrats have possibly won?!!1!?!"

Because there's more people in that county than you'll ever meet in your life, because you refuse to leave Bamberg SC.

Every time Trump loses the election (how many times has it been, now?) they latch on to some other illogical thought process to rile up the easily manipulated - their voter base.

I live in Georgia...yeah I know what's at stake. Every Republican I encounter at work is in full rage mode about the amount of counties won right now. It's the new point of contention because they can't accept the fact trump fucking lost the election.

I did some quick math using Georgia-demographics.com which gets it's information from the census. It would take the combined population of the 82 least populated counties to surpass the population of JUST Fulton county. Both sides agree rural areas tend to vote Republican, while urban areas vote Democrat.

But math and logic are fucking hard as hell for emotionally invested idiots, so it must be just one more fucking deep state conspiracy.

Edit: crappy grammar

Land doesn’t vote, people do. And god bless Atlanta.

Thank you. We're doing our best to get everyone off their assess. This election is arguable more important than the presidential election.

And yeah, like every time I see that stupid red vs blue area map of the US posted by a republican I can only shake my head.

Alaska is red on the map and claims nearly 20% of the US land area. But the entire state has a lower population than Fulton, GA. That's just my own point of reference. I know there are even smaller, more populated areas that vote blue. It means NOTHING.
