So, in very vague and general terms, based on my limited understanding of the parties and attempting to convert then to a modern context, something
like this:

Federalist Party: Culturally urban/Northeastern, pro-business, more centralized government, more realist in terms of foreign policy.
Democratic-Republican Party: Culturally rural/Southern/Western, populist, more decentralized government/"Sates Rights", more non-interventionist foreign policy.

Okay, let me take a crack at a map for that:


270-268

Eh, probably not very good, but this my attempt at make a map of these parties in a roughly even election year.

Looks like D vs. R for 2020, or even 2016.

Yeah, it does, which is part of the reason I don't really like the map, since it seems to reinforce the overly simple "the parties switched sides" argument.
