another thing we talked about was fast growing counties
我們還討論過那些發(fā)展迅速的縣
this is not in absolute numbers but in percentage terms
這里顯示的不是支持人數(shù)的絕對值 而是百分比
this is from 2000 to 2006
這是00到06年間發(fā)展最快的縣
and what I have here is the McCain vote first and then in parenthesis the Bush vote
第一個(gè)百分比是今年麥凱恩的支持率 而括號(hào)里的是04年布什的支持率
I have underlined those
我給(麥凱恩失守的縣)加了下劃線
well, first of all
首先要說的是
I should mention as I said the other week
我前幾周應(yīng)該也說過
that George Bush in 2004 won all these counties in fact as I said
布什04年的時(shí)候拿下了表中的所有縣 我說過 04年時(shí)
I gave up after the 30 fastest growing counties and Bush won them all
我找出了發(fā)展最快的前30個(gè)縣的選情 發(fā)現(xiàn)他們?nèi)恐С植际?/p>
I don't know how far I would have to go down
不知道往后找多少才會(huì)看到一個(gè)例外
quite different this time
這次卻非常不同
you can see Loudoun County, Virginia, Osceola Florida, Newton Georgia, Kendall Illinois
例如弗吉尼亞州的勞登縣 佛羅里達(dá)的奧西歐拉縣 喬治亞的牛頓縣 伊利諾伊的肯達(dá)爾縣
in Florida as well a number of these real rapidly growing
在佛羅里達(dá)州 有不少像這樣發(fā)展迅速的縣
ex-urban counties
在準(zhǔn)城郊的縣
counties on the fringe switching from the Republican to the Democratic category
都處于逐漸從共和黨陣營轉(zhuǎn)向民主黨的邊緣
and almost all of the rest they were Democratic gains
在其他快速增長縣民主黨支持率也有增加
gains for Obama
更多人愿意支持奧巴馬
so you can see Rockwall Texas very near Dallas still very solidly Republican voting
例如德州的羅科沃爾縣 離達(dá)拉斯很近 仍然極為傾向共和黨
but not quite as much as it was before
但支持率對比04年已有所下降
from 79% for Bush to 73%
從對布什的79%變?yōu)?3%
Forsyth County, Georgia north-east of Atlanta
亞特蘭大東北部的福賽斯縣
very Republican that it had been 83% now it's 79%
04年對共和黨支持率高達(dá)83% 現(xiàn)在也下降到79%了
so we can really see some shifting here
發(fā)生在這些縣的轉(zhuǎn)變是顯而易見的
