| #6 It's still interesting. From memory, more voters in Milwaukee cast ballots in the 2004 and 2008 Presidential elections than there were 18+ year olds living there based on the US Census (for what that's worth). Kerry won the area in 2004 and 'The One' did the same in '08. |

| #2 Suprisingly, approximately the same number of votes for the same usual suspects appear to have been cast in Milwaukee's recent elections. Imagine that. |

| #1 I suspect most of them have simply left for greener pastures. Lots more jobs in Texas and N. Dakota than the Rust Belt. Nothing sinister... unless the aliens have developed a taste for black folks. |
