Brockton has the highest number of GOP voters? No way!
High School sports teams, especially football, often receive national attention. Also the home of the late, great heavyweight champion Rocky Marciano...but
Once upon a time it was a thriving, working class city, prominent in the shoe manufacturing industry. Fell on hard times decades ago when that industry left and has never really recovered. Compared to 98.2% of MA, they lag behind by most measurements other than good schools, which are hindered by lack of safety.
High crime, higher than normal (for MA) unemployment, high rates of poverty...there must be some mistake re: GOP voters, unless it's just sheer numbers (good sized population) and not percent. If percent, there are several very wealthy towns that would clobber Brockton when it comes to GOP activity.
If a wall were to be built around Brockton it would be to keep the drug dealers inside.
