Some examples from Europe:
Not completely comparable as the election happened in a country with a multi-party system and under proportional representation, but this map of the 2010 Swedish general election could lead to the conclusion that the Social Democrats bet the Moderate Party quite comfortably - In fact, the Social Democrats got 30.7 % and the Moderates 30.1 %.
Same for the 2005 German federal elections: The SPD became largest party in 12 out of 16 states (including the most populous state of North Rhine-Westphalia), but the CDU/CSU alliance got 35.2 % compared to the Social Democrats' 34.2 %.
Last map for elections with proportional seat allocation: The municipality map of the 2011 Finnish parliamentary election. By looking at this map, someone wouldn't think the Center Party (green) would've ended up in 4th place with 15.8 % far behind the National Coalition (blue) which received 22.3 % in the end.
The 2018 elections for the Croat Member of the collective Presidency in Bosnia resulted in a map that would suggest a close race. In the end, Komšić won by 16 points over Čović.
