I'm in southeastern MA, and my town went light blue - 51.9% Hillary, 42.2% Trump. I'm pretty sad to see how close it was, I was hoping for a much darker shade of blue. Maybe someday I'll be able to afford to live closer to Boston or on the outermost Cape or the Islands, where truly sane people live.
BUT, at least I'm not in dark red Broadwater County, Montana anymore - there it was 75.1% Trump v. 18.2% Clinton. No wonder I was so freaking miserable living there!
Do you mean Montana? It's not nearly as cold as New England, and the snow totals are much lighter and roads are much easier to travel - except right in the mountains after a storm.
Please, go check it out! I'd be perfectly fine with all Trump supporters leaving the otherwise civilized New England.
I would consider moving there, if it wasn't so damn cold.
For me, it is far better to grasp the Universe as it really is than to persist in delusion, however satisfying and reassuring.

He's never more hilarious then when he's being humorless...
I have to say that as saddened and depressed as I have been about Trump's election, seeing how absolutely apoplectic with sputtering rage it has made rube makes the pain just a little more easy to bear...
President Elect Trump has begun naming who will serve on his cabinet, and amongst the most eye-catching is the appointment of Lord Voldemort as Chief of Staff.
“We knew that President Trump would need someone who could practise magic,” said US political expert Simon Williams.
“Building a wall, repealing Obamacare, deporting three million people. That’s all on the first day. I can’t see any way of getting that done without the use of some pretty powerful magic.
“But appointing the evilest wizard for thousands and thousands of years? That is a bold move.”
Lord Voldemort, who has been described as a ‘raging psychopath, devoid of normal human responses to other people’s suffering’ will be in charge of the day-to-day operation of President Trump’s White House, including controlling access to the President, management of staff, and organising Secret Santa for the Christmas party.
It is understood that Lord Voldemort had been seeking a return to public life after his humiliating defeat at the hands of Harry Potter, and came close to replacing Randy Jackson on Season 13 of American Idol, but turned it down for a promised role in Celebrity Masterchef that fell through.
Rumours that Lord Voldemort was only offered the role after Sauron, Dark Lord of Mordor, turned it down to work with David Davis on Brexit, are so far unconfirmed.
People who are wrong are just as sure they're right as people who are right. The only difference is, they're wrong.
