For goodness sakes, we're Democrats! Land doesn't vote!
I never want to see posts like "Hillary won more counties" "Edwards won more counties than Obama", etc... All that matters is the will of the voters. Land doesn't vote. We're not a feudal society. Enough of this garbage.

1. *sigh* We're Electing Delegates
consequently, counties and congressional districts matter. Don't yell at people for recognizing the system that was put in place to give a voice to under-represented segments of society.

5. Counties don't matter.
Fundamentally the states are each decided by the will of the people in them.
