X-axis: percent of people reporting English or American ancestry in the 2000 Census (according to Wikipedia)
Y-axis: fraction of votes cast for Obama in 2012 (www.maine.gov/sos/cec/elec/2012/2012prescounty.xls)
This took me about 5 minutes. It could be repeated with more finely-grained data (town/city-level instead of county-level), using more recent ancestry information, and controlling for the presence of non-whites. But I don't anticipate the trend reversing.
You could repeat it by looking at more local results, but for reasons previously explained to you, what you found wouldn't really mean much.
ReplyDelete"This does not actually disprove my imaginings because . . . what if some additional baseless suppositions were true!"
ReplyDeleteYou're in no position to explain anything to me, and I'm not going to debate a fucking retard.
A couple of points:
ReplyDelete1. If your claims were true (and you have made your own), would it be necessary to resort to insults to defend them?
2. I've seen not a single thing contradicting what I've stated in my previous reply. Do you have anything substantive to say?
The bottom line is I see no room for productive discussion with someone whose model of reality is so wildly unhinged from actual facts and who is unwilling to make a good faith effort to test his "theories".

Translation: "I've got nothing, so I'm going to keep pretending that you didn't answer my criticisms or explained why my own methods are flawed. I'm going to keep using them as if they were valid forms of investigation because I don't want to let go of my (overtly racist) worldview."
Thanks for playing.
Unfortunately, the average age of the folks in the discussion at my blog is a little bit older than 13, so it might not suit your fancy.
