I'd guess it'd be in MS or SC in the early C20th

Every single county in Georgia, Mississippi and Missouri in 1832:
Jackson 100,00%
all others 0,00%

I guess nobody else was on the ballot, and the write-in vote hadn't been invented yet...
I meant with both major parties on the ballot....
Al was right, several counties in SC had 100% for democrats in 1916, 1912, 1904
No data on MS befor 1924

In 1936 there were a few counties that went 100% for FDR in the South as well.  Not sure if it has happened since then.

Too bad Dave doesn't have an even darker shade of color for 100%. I suppose there isn't anything darker than the 90%+ shade.
