I have lived in Scranton all my life. To clarify a few points, the huge auto junkyard is in Dunmore next to Scranton. We used to be the 3rd largest city in the state. Donald Trump may think we all want coal mining back but we do not. Also to clarify, as soon as you get into the actual towns here in Lackawanna County you had all the Biden signs bloom. Lackawanna County went for Obama, twice and the towns in it went for Hillary. We also solidly backed Biden and Harris. Do not confuse us with Wilkes Barre and Luzerne County, even though through one gerrymander my slice of Scranton was represented by that jackass Lou Barletta.
In this state, just about every population center went blue. All the rural went red. I just hate that people think that towns of 80 K population are all rubes and that blue collar workers and all the elderly are morons all mad for Tr**p. I have one nephew not blood but "by the pen" who is a Tr**per. Even his elderly mother can't understand it. As for being old deciding you are for Tr**p, my siblings and I loathe the guy (we range in age from 74 to 77) and my aunt who was 94 couldn't understand how he was even being seriously taken as a candidate. Happily for her she died right before the conventions and missed the election
Cool, I like Scranton, weird place. I was mainly referring to the rural areas north of there. I drive down from Delaware Co, State Hwy 10 all the way to the border.
That's what he said.
I so enjoyed reading about the GOP eating itself.
Lewisburg used to be OK, but Bucknell's slowly been converted from a liberal arts college into a business school.
which actually is a RECTANGLE, not a square, but you know, Geometry is hard.

Our metro area here in the NE part of the state is about 200 k of folks.

Was just saying how weird it is.

Right? Where are Max and The Chief?
Ta, Liz.
No shit. Also a really crappy pompous writer.
Handy, thanks.
