When I first saw the 1916 map I was amazed by how much of an opposite was to modern maps. The first map to pop into my head was 2004. Part of it was the colors. In 1916, yes, Woodrow Wilson was the good ol' Southern boy fighting off the yankee Hughes, thus the forum's color scheme makes sense. However, in 2004, IMO, the color scheme should've been reversed as Dubya was the the Good Ol' boy and Kerrey was this New England yankee. Red is Southern and Blue is Northern IMO. Anyway, yeah, I was intrigued by the difference between 1916 and 2004. Although, now that you mention it, 2000 does seem to fit better, but when I first thought of it, I was contrasting it with '04 and thus that's what I chose to do.

Red is left and blue is right, you dumb Murican ! Wink

Not really. Wink

I'll give you a clue : this is not an election map, even though colors still represent parties (red is D, blue is R, green is independent, yellow is libertarian and orange is other, grey can be described as "none").

Nope, it's not based on any actual election results of any sort. Wink

Second most amount of registered voters in a state? Something about ballot access?

Sorry, but no.

Need another clue ?

Here's the clue.

The same map can be made for Europe.



And for Canada.



Now you'd better guess what it's about. Wink

Are you using a nominal color scale?

As I said earlier, the colors mean Democrat, Republican, Independent, Libertarian, Other and None.


I've a feeling it involves relation to water or borders.

No...

That's it, you did eventually guess ! Smiley

The party affiliation of the user with the most posts in each State. Most of the time, I simply used the avatar, except when I knew the avatar wasn't serious. That's why Nevada is green (Joe has always had a green avatar until very recently), or why Ontario is too (Hash of course isn't a libertarian). Orange included others, but also constitution and green (France is me Tongue).

It appears we need to find posters from UT, ND, AR, AL, and VT.

To be honest, I simply stopped to search when I came to posters with around 800-900 posts, so there theoretically might be some guy from UT, ND, AR, AL or VT, but it's not a big poster.

Something VERY weird should happen.
Dem must eat a baby and said that he would destroy all states execept CA, OR, HI, NJ, VT, RI and MD.
The 2020s are a weird time. In 2024, after 11 years of Republicans controlling the government, economic growth under 4% is considered a stagnation and if the US government produces a surplus under $250 billion, the public freaks out. Also notice of how the democratic candidate wins CA, OR, HI, NJ, VT, RI and MD by very low margins.

Thank you for explaining very well why this map makes absolutely no sense. Wink

It's based on the 1790s electoral college (though there are a few mistakes : VT should have 4 and MD should have 10). Don't know who the candidates are, but such a scenario certainly involve Washington not running... Maybe Jefferson vs Haminton in 1792 ?

Did you take a certain number of Romney votes and give them to Paul ?

Ok, it's basically:
yellow: states with Hispanic plurality/majority precincts, 30% shade indicates a single precinct in the whole state.
blue: black plurality/majority precincts, 30% shade indicates a single precinct in the whole state.
red: Asian plurality/majority precincts, 30% shade indicates a single precinct in the whole state.
green: native American plurality/majority precincts, 30% shade indicates a single precinct in the whole
blue: VT+NH are the only states which have no non-white plurality/majority precincts

It was definitely impossible to guess.

Sen. Hillary Clinton/Gov. Mark Warner v. Pres. George W. Bush/Vice Pres. Dick Cheney

There's no way democrats will win an election and lose NM anywhere in the near future.
