It’s time for Americans to embrace small cars

That definition of rural where the 20% comes from isn't countryside.

https://www.hrsa.gov/rural-health/about-us/what-is-rural

"Micro area (urban core of 10,000-49,9999 people)"

I apparently live in a rural area, Helena, MT. The state capital by the way.

You can look up if you are the 20% Rural or 80% Urban here: https://data.hrsa.gov/tools/rural-health

I say all this because I walk to the grocery store and bike to work. In a rural area no less!

Thanks, and also 70 million is still a much smaller number than 262 million which would be the remaining population (continuing to use broad number as the OP did) and so the point still stands based on that alone.

70 million is enough to turn ANY national election...

70 million - 1; rural people aren't a bloc.
