(indeed I've had Americans tell me that the average German is supposedly better informed about American politics than the average American, though I can't really believe that)
This would not surprise me. When I was in Spain in 2009 I met a Chilean woman who listed all the presidents in order from Obama to Nixon with an opinion of each. I sincerely doubt most Americans could do that.

No, you're completely right. NYC is literally the only reason NY is a blue state. Source : I am a New Yorker.
It's because of all the cities, just like it is elsewhere. Rochester/Buffalo/Syracuse/Albany are reliably blue. Once you get into rural Upstate though, hooboy is it Trump country.
