States more Dem/Rep than all states that border it

For 2008...

MD is dependent on whether DC is considered a state for these purposes.

Does anyone want to make a map for any previous year (though it might be wise to eliminate DC and ME since they will be colored every year)?

Since at least 1988, these states have voted more Democratic than all states that border them:

NM
MT (margin of victory, but not party percentage)
ME (margin of victory, but not party percentage)

Republican:

SC
CT
NH

1988 - how can Nebraska and Iowa both be red when they border each other?

For this thread, it doesn't really make sense to consider water borders.

It appears Nebraska should be blue and Iowa still red.

Does anyone have an explanation of why Montana has been more Dem than states bordering it? (The others are more obvious.)
