Where do we define 'north and 'south'? How do western states fit into this picture? I wouldn't be surprised if Hillary Clinton could get close (my definition doesn't include DC, MD, or DE). The northeast will probably never vote Republican again, but that's not necessarily 'the north'.


203: South
190: North

Interestingly, Maryland and Delaware make up 13 electoral votes. While D. C. is clearly culturally northern, Maryland and Delaware have a mix of culture. Not counting them it's an even 190-190 split.

I'm a lot more skeptical about the idea of states like MS eventually being more Democratic after 2016.  I think we're headed for more of an East-West split, instead.
Not even that.

So eight Lean R states and one Lean D state? Makes sense.
