Yes and that's true but the hollowing out of the cities themselves still has a monster effect as the cities are huge Democratic wipeouts and suburbs tilt blue but not by anywhere near the same margins.Those must be city proper numbers, no? I would think metro vs. metro would be the more relevant stat, as the city suburbs are voting blue now.
Since 1950
St. Louis metro +1.2M, city -555K
Detroit metro +1.6M, city -1.2M
Cleveland metro +400K, city -542K
Cincinnati metro +1M, city -192K
Pittsburgh metro +57K, city -373K
Milwaukee metro +560K, city -166K
Buffalo metro +77K, city -302K
