Very urban and very rural Congressional districts (as estimated by physical size of districts) were the most likely to vote against the Fiscal Responsibility Act. Probably because the most extreme members of Congress are from very urban and very rural areas. Suburban moderates probably have more concerns about losing in an general election then a primary.
