Republicans

A buddy of mine was hanging out at a local gathering spot in his small, southern town on this past Election Day. Evidently Jeopardy was playing on the televisions inside and upon going outside to smoke a small group was discussing a previous question.
The question was about the name of the second planet from the Sun. My friend, of course, knew the answer (Venus), but one person, a woman in her late 30’s, decided to chime in with, “Everyone knows it’s Earth.”
My buddy, resisting the urge to pounce in her in the form of thrusting a finger at her and laughing, calmly said, “No, actually it isn’t. The second planet is Venus. Earth is the third planet.”
The woman, without missing a beat, responds happily, “Well, I never was too into astrology.”
This time my buddy couldn’t resist. “You voted Republican, didn’t you?”
The woman completely lights up, as if bonding with a stranger who shares a rare hobby, “How did you know?!!”
