There are lots of counties in the US where Obama received 80+% of the vote and I don't see them listed.

The red/blue divide is more complicated than he makes it sound though. Down here in deep South Texas (McAllen-Brownsville) many people do own guns and pickups and like to hunt, say ma'am and sir (or señor), but Obama still got about 70% of the vote anyways.
