I know Antonio will like this one.

2000-2008 trend

Indeed. Smiley

As for the maps I like, there are a lot and I'd have difficulties to list them (1888 is funny with its perfect Noth/South divide ; 1824, 1860 and 1912 for the division between candidates ; 1960 for the utter randomnesss and extreme closeness of some States ; 1976 for the original East/West divide, etc...).

Not enough resolution, Hash... those maps should be 5% scaled! Grin

Some of the French commune maps can get so detailed that at a distance they look like some sort of impressionist painting.



What election was it and which party do the colors represent ? Huh

That's the first round of the 2002 French presidential election.

Green: Saint-Josse (CPNT)
Purple: Le Pen (FN)
Blue: Chirac (RPR)
Red: Jospin (PS)
Yellow: Bayrou (UDF)
Orange: Commies and Trots - and maybe some other candidates. I ran out of colors.

Oh, I see. That's a weird color code, but the result is quite beautiful. Smiley


BTW, the map of your sig is absolutely awesome.

Purely from a partisan hack's point of view:


From a hackish point of view, my favorite British election is definitely 1945. Wink
