    Making sht up to slander liberals. Typical conservatives playbook.

    The party that doesn't believe in science is supposedly the healthier party.

    Southern comfort food. Republicans get fat off that sht

    This isn't broken down by left leaning politics vs. right leaning politics. But it does go by state. Most of these states lean right in their politics.

    1 West Virginia 40.6% 39.1 per 100k 85.2 kg
    2 Kentucky 40.3% 36.6 per 100k 85.29 kg
    3 Alabama 39.9% 39 per 100k 85.05 kg
    4 Oklahoma 39.4% 36.4 per 100k 84.16 kg
    5 Mississippi 39.1% 39.7 per 100k 85.11 kg
    6 Arkansas 38.7% 36.4 per 100k 82.68 kg
    7 Louisiana 38.6% 38.1 per 100k 84.23 kg
    8 South Dakota 38.4% 33.2 per 100k 84.61 kg
    9 Ohio 37.7% 35.5 per 100k 84.94 kg
    10 Missouri 37.3% 34 per 100k

    I think Americans are fat, it does not seem to be a partisan issue.

    Political affiliation isn't tracked in things like BRFSS. Not sure how one could get this information. It might be out there. I know in the YRBSS I think does ask something about politics but the Y is for Youth, so that wouldn't give you the info you need anyway.

    Your act is a little to heavy handed. I know you are playing a right wing character.

    I can say liberal areas have hotter girls that are more willing to give it up. They also believe in birth control, so you don't have to always where a jimmy.
