You are assuming that small town equals dumb. Each base has some dummies. You're ignorance is leading you to eliminate every republican vote based on geography. In those towns, if you eliminate the dumb, they would still vote republican because of their values. It would just be less dumb republicans. Inner cities have much higher populations and basically dominate elections. They also have a large population of uneducated, conservative hating liberals who depend on the government's tit and vote accordingly. Wisconsin, Michigan, Pennsylvania and Georgia are arguably the states that carried Biden. They're full of small towns with conservative values and are handicapped by Milwaukee, Detroit, Philadelphia and Atlanta when it comes to voters. Or ballots, whatever. You're also leaving out independents. Trump turned off a lot of Independents, but the democrats have completely lost them since Biden has been in office. You're just too biased for your team to see that.
