Notes
- In this county or city where Thurmond ran second ahead of Dewey, the margin given is Truman vote minus Thurmond vote.
gollark: I generate capital via communistic/apiaristic reactors.
gollark: I mostly run it very cheaply.
gollark: osmarks.net subscribers can choose to have stuff hosted on the actual server™, the spare raspberry pi™, my VPS™, or possibly a spare Android tablet if they need that somehow.
gollark: But it doesn't actually run any critical or important systems so it might not be sensible to count it under osmarks.net costs.
gollark: I pay a ridiculously tiny amount for a VPS somewhere, with the minor tradeoff that it has sub-RPi specs and no IPv6.
