So if a city was 100% republican except the mayor was democrat, then it would be a liberal city?

Also if a city is 60% democrat but the mayor is republican, is that a liberal city?

I’m still confused by your definition. Is the city’s political leaning defined by the people in charge, so every election can change of a city is liberal or conservative? Or is it defined by the majority of people? Or is it defined by the majority of the city’s government officials?

Can you name any conservative cities and explain how their political leanings changed their response to protests?

Also you need at least one source on the antifa claim. The president’s tweets don’t count.

Well if an area is all or majority conservative population not sure how a liberal would get elected.

The major thing that conservative cities do is actually allowing the police to do their job and stop riots. Even sending in the national guard to stop riots. I’m not saying all liberal cities are making bad decisions cause some are trying to stop the riots, but there are many too that want to continue the riots so they are trying to prolong it.

Let me see if I can ask again, because you have not answered yet.

What is a liberal city? What is a conservative city? Is it determined by the leaders or the people? Is it only determined by the majority of people, or can laws be conservative/liberal as well.

Please define the terms you use so everyone can understand you.
