Here's where I got it from. Check out Kentucky: it has counties that are "moist." I really have no idea what that means!

"Moist" means that the county is dry but a city within the county is not.

Historically, county folk tended to vote “dry” while city folk tended to vote "wet". The county almost always had more voters so many small towns and counties remained dry. There is a fairly new law (within the last year or so) that allows Kentucky’s “cities” to vote on off-sale within the city limits - and only residents of the city may vote on the wet/dry referendum.
