By The Numbers - part the ninety sixth

By now you've heard/read that President Huey Long v2.0/2024© is crowing that SNAP is a Democrat program, and he's happy to see them varmints go hungry. But guess what? SNAP, orig. Food Stamps, came to be in 1939. FDR, not LBJ.

Here's the dope. And, guess what? I'll bet the top 10 ain't all Democrat/urban states on a per capita basis. But, then, I'll bet you figured that, right? Liars will lie.

1  - New Mexico 
2  - Louisiana 
3  - Oregon 
4  - Oklahoma 
5  - Nevada  
6  - Massachusetts 
7  - West Virginia 
8  - Pennsylvania 
9  - Illinois  
10 - Alabama 
Only MA can arguably be labelled "urban"; it's a small, Eastern, educated locale. The rest, most likely, lean rural. Let's go see. Numbers are percent rural, as makes sense.
1 - New Mexico  rural 24.7
2 - Louisiana  rural 29.1
3 - Oregon  rural 19.7 
4 - Oklahoma  rural 35.8
5 - Nevada  rural 6.2
6 - Massachusetts  rural 8.9
7 - West Virginia  rural 55.2
8 - Pennsylvania  rural 23.6
9 - Illinois  rural 13.2
10 - Alabama  rural 42 
Clearly, Nevada is the outlier, with nearly all the population in casino cities; other than that, SNAP correlates strongly with the shitkicker lifestyle. Hate filled, Petty, Paranoid, Demented, Dictator Don's peeps.

Serves them all right for voting for the bastard.
