      You mean in NYC and NJ? Two places that were notoriously not part of the Confederation?

      Virginia is promising, but they’ve always been on the borderline when it comes to north/south division.

        When we are talking about Sherman, the first thought goes to Georgia which was a win for the left. I believe this is what the commentor above was referencing.

        Yeah I mean West Virginia was literally formed because they didn’t want to secede along with the rest of the Commonwealth. It’s kind of ironic that WV is deep red and VA is bluish-purple now.

          It’s sad what has happened to WV. It used to be one of the strongest union states, but I guess racism is more important to people down there.
