Looking at the map I think it kind of interesting that the seem's the The States where people are more self reliant on themselves lean republican vs the ones where people are more reliant on Goverment vote democratic.

MAJ Carl Ballinger - Not according to the below database, there seems to be a direct correlation to amount of farm subsidies and political leaning (red states get more):

I think there are Republican farmers that take subsides but it's because the subsidy program that exist they must. A
Farmer not taking subsists will be disadvantaged due to the another competing with one who will take it. This is a sample of Goverment meddling in a free market place.

Don't let the color and graphics fool you. It's just another poll. How well have those performed in recent decades? How well has any poll performed prior to the conventions in an election year? How well do they perform in the couple of months following the conventions? We the People have made our choices. They're not very good choices. Neither party establishment is particularly happy with the hand they've been dealt. But the die is cast and we'll just have to wait for it to stop tumbling in Novermber

Capt Tom Brown - They have their interactive tool up, but no hard predictions yet as it is too early for them to mean anything.
