Oh and I need it ASAP so I can write the paper. Thanks

Hi guywithquestions,

I found 13 "articles" for you, not scolarly articles but interesting
and informative discussions, debates, and opinions as to why the south
votes Republican. All in all, they will cover the gamut of reasons why
this is so.

scholarly (sheesh!)

This is an interesting topic, but finding ten articles is likely to
take more time than most Researchers are willing to invest in a
project that will provide only $2.25 in compensation. If this is
important to you, I suggest that you increase the price.

The rating is a puzzlement. Cynthia's answer sure looks like 5-star
work to me. She found thirteen articles for five bucks (only $3.75 of
which went to her). What more did you expect?

Sometimes people are not able to rate answers correctly. Thats what it
looks like to me.
