The SD, MS and AL results should hopefully be a sufficient clue.

McGovern v. Goldwater or something?

You're very close, but missing another detail.

Is it a combination of the 1964 and 1972 maps?

Yep, that's it.  I just added up Johnson and McGovern's totals, and Nixon and Goldwater's totals.

It's strange that after all that, it looks so similar to a current election map.

Another combination of two elections.  You just have to guess which ones:

The meaning of these two maps should be easy to guess:

I'm guessing the this map is 1904 and 1932.

or

Now that I look at it closer, 1928 and 1932.

Correct on the second time. Smiley

BTW, I ran this on the Electoral Calculator.  Hoover loses, but by a less embarasing 292-239  Smiley

P.S. Winning Minnesota, Utah, Kentucky and Montana would put Hoover over the mark with 269-262

Ugh no one likes mine?  Alright it has to do with the 2004 election.  Blue-Bush, Red-Kerry of course.

Is gray a tie?

EDIT: Ah, whatever, I'll solve em right away.


Blue - more people originally from this state now residing in Florida than in California. Red - more in California. Green - more in California than in Florida, but more native Californians in this state than natives of this state in California.
I like that fairly clean East-West cut, although bleeding Kentuckians complicate the matter...


Blue - net lifetime immigration state (from other US states, DC and P.R. only; without immigration from foreign countries.)
Red - net lifetime emigration state (ditto)
Colour shades are what they always are, ie 60% means immigrants to this state are 60-70% of (immigrants to + emigrants from) this state. (In other words, immigrants outnumber emigrants by over 3 to 2, and by not much more than 2 to 1.) etc.

The second one is fairly easy, Joe. What else can you think of distributed in such a fashion except growth?

The first is pretty impossible, grant you that. It's just something I stumbled upon and found interesting.

Red states: Turnout over 60% in Election 2004
Blue States: Turnout between 50 and 60% in Election 2004
Grey States: Turnout less than 50% in Election 2004

That can't be it, since turnout was over 60% for the whole nation.

Nope.  Here's a hint.  I'll give you the map from 5 years ago:

The color scheme should be easy enough, but its the shading you should focus on:

Senate seats- red is dem, blue is rep, and green is mixed. Color is based on how many terns the twosenators have served, combined? with darker being longer.

2004 with a 55.1-43.4 result.  (4.7% swing, or twice that) [the counterpart to the Dem landslide posted in the 2008 section]

Republicans win Oregon by 94 votes.
Democrats win Pennsylvania (and the election) by 37,000 votes.
