2004 User Predictions - Discussion
ElectionAtlas:
This topic is to re-start the discussions around the user predictions located at the 2004 Prediction page. I have created another topic to discuss the technical issues with the feature.
Ryan:
Dave, it may be a little too late to suggest changes in color-coding for your map repeating 2000 results, but I found the shades to red associated with >50 and >60 to be too similar.
Also since the difference between getting 50.16% (Washington) and getting 54.60% (Illinois) in the last election makes all the difference with regard to predicting competitiveness in the next election, Might I suggest having more than one category for 50-60%?
As to the predictive maps, I myself plan to have four completely different colors
Solid Republican – Dark Blue
Lean Republican – Light Blue
Tossup - White or gray
Lean Democrat – Light Red
Solid Democrat– Dark Red
Ryan:
Well I seem to be obsessed with colors today. :)Darthkosh you seem to have mixed up Red and Blue states by assigning Red to the GOp and vice versa.
I was much shocked to see your map before I realised this :D

Wow! The Dems pick up Utah and the GOP picks up Rhode Island ;)
