Madison only the 34th most liberal city in the nation

I don't know much about the Bay Area Center for Voting Research, but given their most recent study, I'm inclined not to believe their research. In this study, they listed the most liberal and the most conservative cities in the nation. Madison was way down the liberal list at #34. Keep in mind, this is the city that may be the first government in the nation to require employers to provide paid sick leave to employees, a fringe benefit even San Francisco allows its businesses the freedom to provide or not provide. We're talking top twenty, easy, for the People's Republic of Madison.
