I guess the question is "Why do you think it matters?"

These are Democrats. Sure. Democrats in OKLAHOMA. That's like Republicans in Maine. It's a whole different breed of Democrat. They are not representative of the party as whole or even as a minor player in party politics. Using these 15 counties is akin to saying David Duke is representative of the mainstream of either party. Just misleading and lazy thought.
