Here are two more maps that I dredged up from my archives.

I really don't know why I made this one, but here it is. Huckabee strength in 2008 primaries, increments of 2%. Rhode Island is dark because at that point Huckabee was the only real opposition to McCain.



And, for reference, New England population (2000).

This thread is absolutely magnificent.

Thanks, I do my best.

Here's the complete swing 2000-2008.

Here is the 2004 Democratic primary. Strength maps to come.

Interesting fact: John Edwards won Maidstone, VT as a write-in.

[RI]

Fyi, I've been trying to get info for 2004 Maine, but my search has not born fruit yet...

Here is the 1992 presidential election. I can't find data for New Hampshire, but even without it it's a new favorite of mine.

[RI]

1992 New Hampshire presidential election is in the 1993 Manual.

If you want, I can send you an image of the town map the Atlas has for NH.

[homelycooking]

The whole image is now complete (and wow, is it beautiful!):



Thanks again, realisticidealist.

[RI]

While you're on 1992, you could do the Democratic primary. The VT and CT results probably aren't available (unless you can get CT which would be awesome, plus it would be a quite interesting map), but the other states would be interesting, especially the Maine results that I have up on the Wiki. I would recommend that you use the candidate colors in my primary thread though.

[homelycooking]

Before I do 1992, I will take care of the 2000 primaries for both parties.

Until then, I keep the maps coming. This is Edwards strength in the '04 primaries. Increments of 5%. Edwards was not on the ballot in VT, and in no town anywhere in NE does he break 50%.

Awesome map !

Here's another. Kucinich strength 2004 in increments of 3%. Pretty much all statistical noise outside of Western Mass.

If you have time, I'd be interested in seeing a plus/minus map for Kerry compared to the average of 2000 and 2008, to see the areas (especially in Mass.) where Kerry was more popular.

Here's what you requested.

Red=Kerry outperforms Gore/Obama average by 5+%
Light pink=Kerry outperforms Gore/Obama average by 0-5%
Light blue=Kerry underperforms Gore/Obama average by 0-5%
Blue=Kerry underperforms Gore/Obama average by 5+%



This map is not that great, since most of the overperforming Kerry towns had Gore/Obama averages weighed down by a high Nader vote in 2000. The map just looks like an overall Dem/Rep strength map.

If you like, I can try this again, but this time comparing Kerry percentages to the Gore and Nader/Obama average.

Yeah, that would be great.

For the first time ever, ladies and gentlemen: 2000, 2004 and 2008 presidentials side-by-side-by-side. Zoom out to 50% for best results.

Next up: 2000 Democratic primary.

[RI]

Yay! I've been waiting for these.

I know it's a huge and boring thing, but I'd be really interested in a town map for Wallace in 1968 if data is available.

[homelycooking]

Maybe realisticidealist can help me out with this, but I only know I can get data easily from MA, CT and probably NH. A few phone calls might do the trick for the rest, though.

You're going to have to email or call Vermont, Rhode Island, and Maine for anything that far back. The other three should be online.

When you have time, could you please do % of French speakers? I know Maine and VT have quite a few and NH has some in the far north, though it's probably negligible in CT, RI, and MA. The U.S. census should have that data. I'd be interested in seeing how far the French-speaking zone extends into the U.S.

Yes. Be aware, however, that between this thread and the New York thread (and my college mid-terms), I have a considerable backlog of requests. It could take a few weeks.

If it's all right with you I am willing to make the new england french% map.
