Michigan maps thread

[Dave from Michigan]

Here is the statewide map of the 1974-78 state senate. It took quite a while to make this one with so many split counties.

Districts 9,17, and 25 shown on this map are only part of that district the rest of the districts are in the gray part and will be shown on the detailed map of Wayne, Oakland, Macomb, and Genesee.

The state senate was 24-14 for both the 1975-78 session and the 1979-1982. which is the largest majority and percentage they have had in the state senate since 1855. I don't have the data for before that date.

Democrats actually gained ground in 1978?  That was generally a pretty good Republican year accross all state legislatures. 

actually they just held there 1974 majority in the state senate. 24-14 for both the 1974 and 1978 elections. They lost the district 37 but picked up the Lansing seat (24) in 1978.

Here is Oakland county in detail. Again I did it starting in 2002 and going up to 2010 instead of the other way. I think I will do it that way for the whole 2002-10 maps. I have labeled the maps quite well so you should be able to tell.

Only one district changes the Republicans held up much better in Oakland than wayne. The 39th district which switched in 06 but not back in 10 is part West Bloomfield and is where lots of Blacks have moved.

and Macomb

[Dave from Michigan]

Genesee County no changes

[Dave from Michigan]

Saginaw county, again no changes over the 5 elections. I could just do one map of the 2002-2010 years but after drawing the lines on one map your just copying it so it's not that big of a deal.

[Dave from Michigan]

Washtenaw, Kent, Ottawa, Ingham, and Kalamazoo all will have detailed maps.

here is Kalamazoo county

Kent county michigan state house 2002-10 by stevendave768

Kent county. Democrats picked up the second Grand Rapids seat in 2006 and held it in 2010.

[Dave from Michigan]

any comments or requests. I plan on doing the state house to the 70's. It's the detailed county maps that take more time but i think they are worth it especially for metro Detroit area and counties with 3 or more districts. I want to do the state senate and House all the way back to the 50's if not earlier I believe there will be some interesting results but I need to info first.

[Dave from Michigan]

Here is Washtenaw county, and finally some interesting changes and results. It appears Washtenaw was ahead of the curve going all Democrat in 2004 instead of 2006 as you would think. But Republicans were able to take back 2 districts at the 2010 election. I was curious and checked the new districts that the 2012 state house districts. The Republicans really only have a shot at 1 district which is most of western Washtenaw county. But currently that district is represented by a Democrat. all 4 districts in Washtenaw county are Democratic.

Ingham county

[Dave from Michigan]

and finally Ottawa county. this should complete the 2002-2010 state house maps. On to the 90's.

[Dave from Michigan]

here is 1992-2000, detail maps to come.

An inner city district went Republican in 2006 of all years?

no sorry the first map in the upper left corner is 2002 and it goes from there up to 2010. It is reverse of what I did in the other maps because I accidentally made the wayne county map wrong. So the district switched from Republican to Democrat in 2006, if I understand you right. Also that district really isn't inner city, it is suburban.

here is 1992-2000. the first map is 1992.

Ottawa county, again no changes from any election from 1992-2000 so only one map. This is how I will be doing it from now on.
