The Great US Climate Game Part 1: Western Division

So my plan with this is to find which major city in each US state + DC has the best climate according to the WWF electorate

The plan is as follows: To avoid unnecessary climate battles between cities that will take months and months on end wear people out, I'll have an introductory "playoff round" like the regular season in any professional sports league. So I'll rapid-fire out two per day and keep the voting open until Sunday evening and then the first Last 16 runoff will start on Monday!

This is therefore the initial 12 city-batch of the westernmost "largest cities in states" so to speak. Vote for the four cities you feel like deserve to go through to the Last 16 one-on-one duels Since this is the one that covers the largest land area, the following cities will have the advantage of being one fewer than the other three parts of the United States since 13*4=52 and won't fit in with 51. Since Colorado has the easternmost point of the 13 states under consideration it will instead be in the Midwest division.

Since it's so diverse I'll expect this to be a very interesting "primary".

Make sure you vote for four climates, so that there's a sizeable tally of votes

I'll give my votes to LA, Portland, Albuquerque and Seattle.

Now, what about you?

Arizona: Phoenix
California: Los Angeles (downtown)
