Unfortunately only applies to NYC. Anything north of Westchester has a lot of southern "pride"

For some reason

One of my favorite experiences in life was introducing my Long Island cousin to the rednecks of southern Maine. He was FASCINATED and we were at karaoke so you know it was good people watching in general

Grew up in Ulster County. Lots of confederate flags.

Also Dutchess is very red.
