Guesses, anyone? I made all three maps by the same method.

It's not that hard, actually.

Here's a hint

Map 1: 1980, 2000
Map 2: 1984, 1924
Map 3: 1916, 2004

Identify the relationship.

Okay, how about this. Focus on map two. Think about Minnesota and South Carolina for a second.

No. What was the most Democratic state in 1984?

Alright, I'll just give it away. I made a list of the number of each shade for 1984:

--1984--
4  R 70%
26 R 60%
19 R 50%
1  D 40%
1  D 80%

I then deleted DC, Alaska, and Hawaii.

Then I applied the shades in order, from most Republican to most Democratic, based on Coolidge's percentage of the vote.

Same for the other two, except different elections/candidates.

Um, Clinton would lose California in a landslide against Roy Moore?

Basically I'm just posting crazy maps, so a generation from now I can dig up this thread after a presidential election and say I nailed it.

I was thinking blacks and Catholic Hispanics flock to the northeast.

That's the first county's results in each state (going in alphabetical order).

It's 2000, except all the >40% states are green.
