Oklahoma had 287 murders in 2020: 166 came out of Oklahoma County and Tulsa County, the two counties that supported Hoffmeister.
A groundbreaking study by John R. Lott of the Crime Prevention Research Center, revealed that "1% of counties have 21% of the population and 42% of the murders" and "2% of counties contain 31% of the population and 56% of the murders."
Biden won Cook County, the bloodiest county in the country, by 66%. He won Los Angeles County, the second bloodiest, by 71%, Harris County by 56%, Philadelphia by 81%, New York City by 76%, Wayne County by 68%, and Shelby County by 64%. Shelby was not only one of the three counties in Tennessee to vote Democrat, it was also responsible for 311 of the state's 682 murders.
Houston accounted for 405 of the 537 murders in Harris County and along with Dallas' 251 murders, Austin's 47, San Antonio's 128, Fort Worth's 99, accounted for around half of murders in Texas.
Maricopa County made up 299 of the 423 murders in Arizona.
The CPRC study showed that while 2% of counties populated by Democrats were responsible for 56% of the country's murders, 52% of counties had no murders and 68% of counties had at most one murder.
As the study notes, "If the 1% of the counties with the worst number of murders somehow were to become a separate country, the murder rate in the rest of the US would have been only 4.31 in 2020. Removing the worst 2% or 5% would have reduced the US rate to just 3.71 or 2.99 per 100,000, respectively." We could have the murder rate of New Zealand.
