Apparently I'm not a good google-r, but I just wanted to know where, or in what vicinity, in the US is the city with the least amount of sunshine? Excluding anywhere in Alaska. :) Any help is appreciated, thank you!

Throughout a year, every part of the earth gets the same amount of daylight I believe.

Nope, extreme northerly and southerly (like the poles) get up to six months of sunlight/no sunlight at a time.

Which averages out to 12 hours per day throughout a year.

Since Alaska is not an option, I would say the states close to Alaska. Washington, Oregon especially around the coast. Not saying it doesn't get any, but I would think it would be the least of anywhere within the US besides Alaska. The place next I would choose would be London. It's always rainy and cloudy.
