This map shows how the 341 American counties in persistent poverty voted in the 2020 Presidential Election. 215 counties voted for Donald Trump; 126 voted for Joe Biden. Alaska Census Areas were estimated using the source provided and thus may be inaccurate. This map does not take into account margin of victory. Any feedback would be appreciated.

Lot of focus down south, but big oof Appalachia
Isn’t this the same map that was just deleted after several people pointed out inaccuracies?
yup, people in KY and WV are exactly what you’d thinkÂ
A previous map focusing on poverty in this sub also included counties like Payne County, Oklahoma – which have major universities as a good fraction of the total population of the county.
I wonder if that skews the results. That was a discussion on a previous post focusing on poverty.
