Volume 12 (Hydroz to Jerem): Idaho.
Idaho entered the Union in 1890. It is a vast (roughly the size of England and Scotland combined) state with a sparse population and it returns only four electors to the Electoral College. In the recent presidential election a convicted criminal and proven misogynist received over two-thirds of the votes cast. The state has a thriving evangelical Christian population. Go figure. I've tried and I can't, though we have to say that the intellectual vacuity of the case made against him perhaps had much to do with it. As Hamm says to Mr Potato Head in the justly revered Toy Story, 'Way to go, Idaho'. NOT.
