I posted the source and the explanation for the statistics on top Liberal Cities and Top Conservative cities. In this study a liberal city was determined by having over 100,000 population and voting records indicating the extent to which they voted Liberal. The top ranking liberal city being the city where people voted liberal the most the second ranked liberal city is the city where people voted liberal the second most often, etc. It's pretty straight forward to anyone sober enough to follow simple logic.
"you've reduced yourself to the point of using code words to describe cities as being liberal or conservative based on the size of their black populations. Sorry but that's pretty obvious. ".
Sorry but you are just full of crap.
