The Republican candidate's share of the votes for the two main parties in the 2000 presidential election. Third-party votes are left out, just as in the other years. Source: MIT Election Data and Science Lab.

For most measures, a national ranking mostly sorts places by income and by how urban they are. Each county’s own page compares it with the 50 counties most like it instead, which is often the fairer view.
