The Pennsylvania Liquor Control Board (PLCB) released its Fiscal Year 2023 Annual Report on Tuesday, showing total sales of $3.15 billion (including liquor and sales taxes), reflecting a $136.3 million or 4.5% increase over the prior year. Net income for the year totaled $260.8 million, a decrease of $70.1 million or 21.2% as compared to fiscal year 2021-22.

The report also provided data on a county-by-county level, including a list of the top-selling variety of wine and spirits for each of the 67 counties in the Commonwealth.

We decided to add some additional numbers to the map, showing how each county voted in the last five statewide elections for president, senator and governor.

We’re not sure that this really indicates any significant trend that campaigns can use in the upcoming months, or that preferring cabernet sauvignon means your political leanings go one way, or preferring unflavored vodka means you lean the other way.

Compare. Contrast. Maybe you’ll see something we didn’t.

Or just take it for the fun map that we whipped up today.
