    Decatur Hearts Obama

    Decatur Metro | October 11, 2008

    As I was flipping through the current issue of Atlanta Magazine while waiting to cut my hairs cut yesterday, I noticed a series of bar charts that showed the breakdown of Obama/McCain contributions by Atlanta metro zip code.

    Bet you can’t guess which zip loves Obama the mostest?

    Yep! According to the chart, of the roughly $100,000 sent to one of the two presidential candidates from 30030, 95% went to Obama.  Staggering!  No other metro area came close to being so one-sided.  (Sorry, I can’t recall or find the source…maybe someone could provide it)

    Doesn’t look like area Dems should lose much sleep over the increase in McCain yard signs after all.  We still seem to be Georgia’s liberal mecca.
