Most Conservative Major Cities in the United States

In the U.S., there is definitely a clear distinction between conservative and liberal cities that become highly relevant during elections where most conservatives support the republican party, and most liberals support the democratic party. Socially the conservatives in the United States are mainly concerned with social issues like opposition to abortion, lobbying against gambling, advocacy against drug usage, opposition to pornography, opposition to same-sex marriage, support for school prayer and support for school vouchers.
