get the fuck over it. this country rejected everything the republicans have to offer right now. look within yourself, fix the broken bits that we simply won't accept, and rejoin society.

I'm not familiar with Nevada, but I instantly knew what one of those red areas was (Las Vegas), and looking on Google Maps, the other is Reno. Both of those are rather large cities in Nevada.
Let's look at some population numbers:
Nevada: 2,723,322 ( src)
Las Vegas: 583,756 city, 1,314,356 urban, 1,951,269 metro ( src)
Reno: 225,221 city, 694,960 metro ( src)
In other words, the area around and including those two cities accounts for about 97% of Nevada's population.

Zin, I don't really doubt the map; I just think he seriously misunderstands the population density in the areas that are marked as voting Democrat. As I mentioned, from what I can see, they're typically larger counties that include larger, or more prominent cities.

I think its great the Republican wackos are still out there with their conspiracy theories.
I think it just continues to show how out of touch and how extreme they are.
More good news for Democrats. The Republicans haven't changed. In fact, they are doubling down on stupid.

Dems and Reps both are corrupt, cheat and try to steal elections. They both implement all of the methods available to them for this. Anyone who thinks otherwise is an ignoramus. Do not support corruption, fight against the Dems and Reps.

Gawd. A map from a "Patriot" site, "Patriot" just being another term for fringe-whack.
Here's the real map from 2008- I doubt 2012 looks much different-

Population density in many of the blue areas is very high, and the red areas, very low...

Nevada is largely a desert. You should take a break and learn about Nevada, or learn about deserts, or both. After you have this new knowledge you should come back and read this post again. After you realize how ridiculous this post is I hope you are able to realize all of your recent posts are equally ridiculous.
You just don't seem to know very much. You seem like someone who would benefit greatly from spending less time talking and more time listening.

Because there is more indoctrination happening in densely populated areas from the Democrats and the Federal Government. D's own the Teachers Unions(or is it the other way around?) in this country. Forced education is child abuse.

I hope this is satire, or you're much more of a kook than I previously imagined.

Utterly desperate denial. I'm pretty sure that people get Sesame Street & Faux News out in the middle of Kansas, via satellite... along with another hundred or so channels, not to mention right wing AM talk radio all over rural America...

What a dumbfuck head in the sand argument. If you look you can find enough questionable occurences, since your side won in 2004 you don't want to. You'd rather talk about 2012 only.
Let's talk about getting voting machines with proprietary software out of elections then, they should never have been used without open source software that could be vetted by software engineers who aren't on voting machine corporation payrolls.
Ireland tried electronic voting machines. They've gotten rid of them. Maybe we should wonder why they did so.

I remember people being sore losers when Bush won but the stupidity is far more extreme now that Romney has lost.
Quite telling.

I plan to vote for the False Equivalency Party, if someone ever forms one.

I don't believe voting machines with proprietary software have anyplace near elections.
Anecdotal stories about flaky behavior raise doubts.
The fact that the software isn't open sourced and able to be vetted by 3rd party software security experts is a concern.
Look around and you can find stories about certain models of voting machines being rather easily hackable at low costs.
If we just can't give them up then their software should be able to be inspected by any software expert who wants to.
All other western democracies count their elections without voting machines and use exit polling to project a winner and their systems work fine.
Look up Ireland's experiences with voting machines. Maybe they know something that we're not willing to acknowledge.

Republicans:
"A black guy beat a real American?"
"Impossible. The election must have been rigged"
