Remember where conservatives tend to live. Getting anything better than a 28.8 kilobit/second modem isn't easy. Eh, for you city folk, that's a 0.0288 megabit connection. The decimal point is 3 or 4 places to the bad side of what you are used to getting.
As tolerable internet makes it's way out to rural America, you can expect to see a change in the average political view on the internet.

- grzm 10y agoESPN is cable, right? Don't most (if not all) cable providers have internet packages? If that's the case, anyone who's getting EPSN is surely has access to connectivity greater than 28.8 kbps.

- patrickg_zill 10y agoYour view is accurate. As of 10 years ago. I think if you chose a random red state area, you would find that they have high speed Internet access there. For instance Atlanta Georgia has a huge concentration of datacenters, went heavily for Trump, and there is high speed Internet all over the state.
