Wayne County Michigan is where Detroit is. This county is almost entirely run by Democrats at every level. It has a Democratic President, a Democratic Governor, a Democratic Congressman, two Democratic Senators, a Democratic County executive, Democratic County Commission, Democratic township and city officials (the mayor of Detroit is of course always a Democrat), and Democratic library board members. And yet... everyone is fleeing Wayne County like a sinking ship!Via Forbes interactive feature "Where Americans are Moving", we can see this visually. The red lines represent people fleeing from the area, while the black lines are people coming into the area. Note how far in the red (deficit) a Democratically-run area is:

A similar sized county in geography and population, it's biggest difference is that it has a Republican Governor, Republican Congressman, two Republican Senators, a Republican County executive, a Republican County Commission, Republican township and city officials, and Republican library board members. Yes, the biggest difference between the counties it that one is Democrat and the other is Republican. Oh, and one is failing (the Democrat one) and one (the Republican one) is successful. Note how far in the black (surplus) a Republican-run area is:
