Im calculating Presidential results and some Congressional districts and am getting some surprises.
CO-03, which up through the 1970's was considered the most Democratic district in the state(It was the only district in the mountain west that Humpherey carried in 1968), voted 53%-45% for Romney, almost as bad as Kerry's loss here in 2004 when the state was much more Republican.
IN-08 voted 58%-40% for Romney after McCain only won it 50%-48% in 2008. This was nearly as bad as Kerry's 61%-39% loss here in 2004.
SC-05 see no swing from 2008, with Romney winning 55%-43%, not a bad result for the deep south at all. This is actually a district I think Democrats should target.
SC-07 is another district that doesnt move an inch, going 54%-45% for Romney. Another future target in the south for Democrats.
AL-02 actually shifts a point in Obama's direction at 63%-36% Romney. Maybe Bright would try again.
Anybody else find any interesting findings?
