Actually it says areas in red "form the core of the NYC metropolitan area." The point is, "upstate" as "all of NYS outside of NYC" is not a useful definition, and it generally carries a connotation of hickdom (which real upstaters would deny, but which we downstaters know is there) which isn't warranted. We do tend to vote Democrat, at least.
