red states = states that trended Dem from 2000-2004
blue states = states that trended GOP from 2000-2004

Can't be. See Iowa and New Mexico.

Nope they trended towards the Democrats.

This is the shaded map:



Trend defined here as "D-R Margin Change from Previous Election Relative to National Change".

     Interesting idea. I was actually thinking about that while playing President Forever.

Yeah, I've been playing around creating a scenario in which the red dog Democrats become a more populist Labor Party, the liberal Democrats join the Greens (which thus become far stronger than presently), the Republicans rebadge themselves as the Conservative Party and in response the Giuliani group within the Republicans join the Libertarians (which, like the Greens, also thus become far stronger).

It's not finished yet, because I keep starting it, and then deciding that all the elections will end up going to the House, so I stop working on it, then I decide to work on it again because it will be fun... it's a vicious circle.

     Let me know when you finish. I would probably enjoy it.

Ditto.

The third party map should be interesting this year, since I except Nader, Barr, Baldwin and McKinney to all be pretty close nationally.

Ralph Nader 413
Bob Barr 93
Ron Paul 12
Chuck Baldwin 5
NOTA 5
Write-in 3
Joke State 7

lol Bob Barr

And no looking in the Gallery to figure it out!

It looks like the 2008 trend map.

Indeed. But it isn't the exact 2008 trend map. I'm guessing some long-term trend.

Jimmy Carter/Adlai Stevenson vs Nelson Rockefeller/Ronald Reagan

Alabama votes for a liberal Republican over a Southern Democrat?

Map 1 is probably 2008 with all exit poll 'moderates' voting Democratic. Ben made a similar map in one thread.

A troll map. Fitting.

All Senators and Representatives from the same party?

Not much working-class support for the JCP, it seems.

Here's an honest map of how I'd poll running for President.

I lose 339-199

I mean, if enough of them know how to write-in a candidate.

Believe me, they do.

Some Florida county released their write-in results, and a lot wrote in Obama, Barak Obama and so forth.

Blue are all-male delegations?

% vote for all third parties combined in 2008 (Nader, GRN, LIB, CON)?

Something to do with a significantly larger win for Obama in 2008?

...or, wait, red counties gave Obama 40%+ of the vote?

Colours are non-political, have to do with demographics and precincts.

Nobody?

Nobody?

Sorry, I've no clue what it could be.

Ok, it's basically:
yellow: states with Hispanic plurality/majority precincts, 30% shade indicates a single precinct in the whole state.
blue: black plurality/majority precincts, 30% shade indicates a single precinct in the whole state.
red: Asian plurality/majority precincts, 30% shade indicates a single precinct in the whole state.
green: native American plurality/majority precincts, 30% shade indicates a single precinct in the whole
blue: VT+NH are the only states which have no non-white plurality/majority precincts
