How did you determine the CD borders on the map? WA-8 wasn't even created until 1982.

The information was in a book at my library by Congressional Quarterly. It contained the maps for the 1981-1991 CDs, and had the election results for each area as if those CDs had existed during these elections. They supposedly went back a looked at precinct results to calculate them.

I totally missed the "by 1981-1990 Congressional Districts" part. My bad. Tongue

WA-2 added to my confusion. I forgot it included the peninsula then. Tongue

I got the 1980 precinct results once... I think Seattle was 49-37 Carter in 1980, or something along those lines. Alcon might remember.
