Donations are being accepted to help Dave continue to work on the app (I believe he's doing this full-time or close to full-time now). I chipped in $5; can't really afford more than that, thanks to my employment status, but considering how much I've used it, I figured I should give him something.

Dave's added partisan data for Washington (the 2010 Senate election).

But not the 2008 presidential election? Interesting.

Someone sent him a spreadsheet with the 2010 results and apparently it was not too much work to convert it for use.

More states with partisan data: GA, OH, SC, TX, and WI, with the caveat: "Note: The statewide vote totals for Georgia and South Carolina will look very low. That's because those states did not report early and absentee voting by precinct, and there was a lot of early voting. Rather than attempt to distribute them, we've left the precincts as is. It still should give a pretty accurate representation of Dem/Rep strength."

Not with the 2010 census numbers.

Sounds like the same problem Illinois had, I'd give Dave a day or so to fix it.

Partisan data is also available for Idaho, which I know everyone was clamoring for.

The Georgia data has been updated to reflect the absentee/early voting totals.

Partisan data for FL, MI, NY, and NC is up:

"Florida and New York have only presidential data.

Michigan and North Carolina have some average data. Also, the vote totals are slightly low, I think due to missing absentees, but the numbers are not that significant. In Michigan, at least 1 precinct is missing data.

The average for Michigan is the three 2006 statewide elections: governor, attorney general and SoS. Granholm (D) won the governorship that year, but Republicans won the other two, skewing the average toward Republicans.

The average for North Carolina is broader: all statewide elections (incl Pres) from 2004-2010."

Partisan data for NJ and TN:

"The TN presidential vote counts are about half of what they should be, I think due to early and absentees (although the notes from the team was not specific on this). The overall percentage is about right. In any case, the average is there as well and should provide a useful guideline. Average includes presidential, governor, senate and house races from 2004-2008.

The NJ vote counts are just a little low. Some vote districts changed between 2008 and 2010 and the team had to distribute vote counts across some vote districts. The average includes presidential, governor and senate races from 2002-2009."

Partisan data for Colorado has been added.

Edit: Looks off, though. Might be Kerry/Bush numbers, but the totals don't line up with the Atlas numbers.

2008 election data has been added for Kansas, Mississippi, Vermont, and Wyoming. Exciting, I know.

How many Obama LDs can be drawn in Wyoming? It has 30.

From what I can tell only 3: One in Cheyenne (barely), one in Laramie and one in Teton County.

I got five (four that are barely Obama districts) by cutting Laramie in half and stringing a district from the Indian reservation in Freemont County to Teton County.

I'm guessing the Senate special election and the 2010 gubernatorial election. It's beyond useless.

Alaska, DC, and Puerto Rico are available now. Partisan data should be available for Connecticut in the next few days. Partisan data for DC (seriously) should be available as soon as Dave uploads it.

I got 57.5% Obama by combining parts of Salt Lake County, Park City, and Ogden.

DC has partisan data now. The most Republican city council district (there are eight) you can draw is 79-20 Obama.

Could someone please add election data for AR, KY, and IA and presidential election data for MA?  Thanks!

It would be nice if it were that easy.
