appears to be an economic divide in Edina. It would be interesting to see the presidential results in Edina by precinct. Edina is probably the wealthiest city in MN that went for Obama.

David, the map would basically be identical to this one. I put it together, but didn't post it to the site because it's literally the exact same map. Each precinct that went for Franzen also went for Obama and each one that voted for Downey also voted for Romney.
