I know they switched the most Democratic states, but how do the other states fit?

Alright, I'll just give it away. I made a list of the number of each shade for 1984:

--1984--
4  R 70%
26 R 60%
19 R 50%
1  D 40%
1  D 80%

I then deleted DC, Alaska, and Hawaii.

Then I applied the shades in order, from most Republican to most Democratic, based on Coolidge's percentage of the vote.

Same for the other two, except different elections/candidates.

Um, Clinton would lose California in a landslide against Roy Moore?

Basically I'm just posting crazy maps, so a generation from now I can dig up this thread after a presidential election and say I nailed it.

A campaign of "Let's nuke the Northeast, especially Maine, but maybe spare New Hampshire" versus "Let's nuke everything other than the Northeast, and Nevada is a really stupid state that sucks."

I was thinking blacks and Catholic Hispanics flock to the northeast.

Whites in Washington actually voted Kerry, but other than that, this makes sense.

1972. Red states had counties won be George McGovern... I think. I tried something similar (never posted it), and it had similar results.

For this map, gray does not denote a tie.

I would say states where candidates over performed in the 1912 election, including Debs.

You're on the right track, but I wouldn't say 'over-performed'.

Well, it can't be underperformed because Debs did exceptionally well in all the grey states.  But the arangement of the Blue state in the south mean that....

Ohhhh... Taft is grey.

TR is Blue

Wilson is red and Debs is Green.  The map denotes where each finished dead last.

Wait, no, that doesn't work at all, TR finished firsr in PA.  Everything else I said seems to match up, though

Well you're close enough.  Smiley

The map shows who came third in each state.  The color arrangement is still the same, but gray is for Debs.

Note that Taft was bumped down to fourth in a few states, and wasn't even on the ballot in OK and SD.

Damn, well, at least I was in the right ballpark.

Yeah, you got it. You could make one where McGovern had to have one more than one county.

Funny that it's less than 60% for MA.
