A group called the Bay Area Center for Voting Research has examined the voting patterns of all 237 American cities with populations over 100,000 and ranked their political leanings. If you look at the conservative rankings, Fort Wayne comes out 44th on the list; on the liberal list, we come in at No. 193. Shocking, I know, simply shocking. Gary comes in at No. 236 on the conservative list and No. 2 on the liberal list, right behind No. 1 Detroit and just ahead of No. 3 Berkeley. Another big surprise. Provo, Utah, is ranked the most conservative city.
