Springfield's Voters
Via Moira Breen I found this amusing piece discussing how many residents of Springfield, the home of television's The Simpsons, might have voted in the 2004 election. It's quite amusing, although it's clear the author isn't quite as familiar with the Simpsons as he needs to be to make the calls; as Moira notes, we know that Krusty is a Republican, for example. But it's still worth a read.
To address the early question of the article, the location of Springfield is actually pretty obvious if you're familiar with the show. We know it's on a coast. We also know that they live someplace close to where you can find Saguaro cactus. Those two facts are sufficient to place Springfield in southern California, probably somewhere between San Diego and Los Angeles.

If Springfield is in Southern California, why all the snow? Remember the episode when Homer has his own business as "Mr. Plow"?
