Baldwin County listed among America's 'most conservative-friendly' counties | al.com: "Baldwin County has made a list of the top 100 'most conservative-friendly' counties in the United States by The Daily Caller, a Washington-based political news Web site.

The county came in at No. 63 on the list.

The Web site's description of the county sounds more geographic than political, except for the reference to its Republican to Democrat ratio:

There are two main areas of settlement in Baldwin County. The bulk of the population is part of the suburbs of Mobile, across the bay from the city itself. The new suburbs are prosperous Gulf Coast towns similar to those around Tampa or Houston. The other thrust of development are the resorts along the Gulf. Beaches like Gulf Shores are very similar to the white sand beaches in the Florida Panhandle. The county is about 3-to-1 Republican."
