Professor Joseph Olson of Hamline University School of Law, St. Paul, Minnesota, points out some interesting facts concerning the 2000 Presidential election:
- Number of States won by Democrats: 19, Republicans: 29
- Square miles of land won by Democrats: 580,000, Republicans: 2,427,000
- Population of counties won by Democrats: 127 million, Republicans: 143 million
- Murder rate per 100,000 residents in counties won by Democrats: 13.2, Republicans: 2.1
Professor Olson adds: ‘In aggregate, the map of the territory Republicans won was mostly the land owned by the taxpaying citizens of this great country. Democrat territory mostly encompassed those citizens living in government-owned tenements and living off various forms of government welfare…’
