37% : The country's urban-rural political divide -- evident even in California, where conservative northern counties have long talked of seceding to form their own State of Jefferson -- has only grown wider since Trump was elected in 2016.37% : In Valentine, there were no visible yard signs for Harris or Trump this week.
37% : Boes does not like the way Trump "talks about and bad-mouths women" and was outraged by the Jan. 6, 2021, insurrection.
36% : Boes is a longtime Republican who voted twice for Trump -- but is undecided this year.
26% : For urban Democrats, "it's as if rural America has become a throwaway, and that lack of interest morphed into enormous resentment after Trump was elected," said Lisa Pruitt, a professor at the UC Davis School of Law and president-elect of the Rural Sociological Society.
18% : She does not like Trump and said it was frustrating that he politicized masks during the COVID-19 pandemic lockdown.
