Court House - What I don't get is why the fuss over the elections in the two states that are the polar opposites in makeup and diversity to the majority of other states? Voters in Iowa and New Hampshire are mostly white, middle class and Christian. Compare them to our state or California, and they are so off the chart, so results do not in any way reflect what happens nationwide. Is the media bombardments only to generate viewer interest?
