2012 Presidential Election, Results by State Legislative/House District

[Fuzzybigfoot]

Thanks to Daily Kos, I've been able to make some maps showing the results of the 2012 Presidential Election by State House/Legislative District.  


I'll start out with:


West Virginia




Sorry about the size of the map. 

Obama got 71% of the vote in LD 37 in Charleston.  Although I knew he likely won the city, I was surprised at how condensed his support was!

Washington:



Nothing surprising here, although it is worthy to note that Obama managed to barely hold on to Washington's 42 Legislative District.  As many of you know, that was one of the places that Democrats tried to win in order to take back the State Senate (they were unsuccessful).

Any requests?

Any requests? 

Massachusetts and Utah would be interesting.

For some reason they don't have results for Massachusetts (at least not for House LDs), but maybe Homely can get those for you.  I'll start work on Utah, though.

Any requests? 

California!

I'll put it in the queue! 

Good work, Fuzzy. You might want to consider using/creating better basemaps for these results.

Here's Rhode Island (2% scale).

Thanks, but I'm no good with mapping software, so I'll probably just have to keep going with the resources I know of (Dave's Redistricting App and such).  However, if you have the time to help me with such endeavors, I would certainly appreciate it!

So it turns out Daily Kos had interactive maps that go along with the data they collected:

They don't have detailed election shades though, so I guess mine are still unique in some way.    Should I bother to keep going?  It is convenient to have maps with Atlas shades (red for Democrats and blue for Republicans).  

[Fuzzybigfoot]

Yeah, you should continue it Fuzzy.

Alright, will do.

Edit: Actually, go to the home page here, then click on the map for better resolution.

I don't know if I'm posting in the right place, but Fuzzy has my total permission to put my maps on Wikipedia.

Thanks!


btw for those who don't know, I put some of Shilly's maps on Wikipedia and credited him.  However, since there wasn't a statement of permission before, those maps are now being treated as if they infringed copyright rules, and are in danger of being deleted.  Now things should be better.

[Fuzzybigfoot]

btw Georgia should be along soon!

Georgia:



A special thank you goes out to Adam Griffin for getting me the map template, and Daily Kos for the election data used to create this map! 

[Fuzzybigfoot]

Illinois would be fascinating, although I know that our data can be difficult to consolidate.

What a coincidence, Illinois was next on my list!  And Daily Kos has all the election data for it already, all we need is a map.

[Fuzzybigfoot]

Illinois:



A special thank you to Adam Griffin for the map template!  Another thank you to Daily Kos for the election data used to create this map. 

[Fuzzybigfoot]

Great work!

Thank you! 

[Fuzzybigfoot]

That's 13 states down.  We'll likely have another map up relatively soon. 

[Fuzzybigfoot]

Excellent, thank you!

[Fuzzybigfoot]

Awesome, thank you Homely!
