A friend asked me if there were any Republicans in DC:
I'd go with Capitol Hill by virtue of its location and a I know a good number of Republicans there, but I think Kent and Spring Valley have a lot of conservative or RINO families, even if they don't advertise it. |

I thought it was an interesting question. Here are the precincts and the percentages that voted for John McCain in 2008. These are only the precincts where he got 10% or more of the vote.
Also here is the precinct map: http://www.dcboee.org/popup.asp?url=/pdf_files/DC_Citywide_Map.pdf Precinct 9 30.55% Precinct 130 26.51% Precinct 12 25.32% Precinct 7 23.11% Precinct 6 22.31% Precinct 3 21.59% Precinct 5 20.80% Precinct 8 20.58% Precinct 4 20.19% Precinct 89 19.51% Precinct 28 18.50% Precinct 10 18.28% Precinct 30 17.72% Precinct 2 17.58% Precinct 11 17.24% Precinct 13 16.51% Precinct 85 15.39% Precinct 143 15.22% Precinct 51 15.20% Precinct 84 14.79% Precinct 90 14.67% Precinct 31 14.46% Precinct 50 13.93% Precinct 29 13.59% Precinct 129 12.94% Precinct 138 12.86% Precinct 34 12.73% Precinct 52 12.51% Precinct 88 12.28% Precinct 32 11.63% Precinct 14 11.29% Precinct 17 10.66% Precinct 27 10.64% Precinct 33 10.60% Precinct 131 10.46% Precinct 26 10.36% Precinct 142 10.13% |

Yes, that's what the helpful PP's chart shows: Spring Valley. Followed by some strange area on the Hill, then Georgetown.
Those are the people who vote Republican. |

| THe map is interesting - but remember that a lot of people who work on the hill are not actually DC residents and therefore you would not see them represented on the voting map. |

For the same reasons anyone else would, you dunce.... some of us do love the restaurants, museums, Metro, history, etc. |

| Most Republicans I know live in NoVa. As Republicans who abhor NoVa, we've found a pretty large number in Chevy Chase. They're certainly not as vocal as the liberal Dems, but they here! |

| Spring Valley. Everyone I know there (maybe 10 families) is a Republican. We are Democrats who live in AU Park. |

| Another cite for Capitol Hill. When a lot of those LAs and chief Of staffs go on to lobbying jobs and thus become DC residents they move into the lovely rowhouses on East Cap or A st. |

Plenty of Democrats live in Spring Valley--like Eric Holder. |
