I'll do a state by state analysis.


First off,


Missouri




Clinton's best districts were the first (St. Louis, with 68% to Bush's 19%) and the 5th district (Kansas City, with 52% of the vote to Bush's 26%)

Bush's best district was the 7th (he won 45% of the vote to Clinton's 36%).


The rest of Missouri's congressional districts (except for the 3rd)  were decided by single digits.  


Perot's best showing was in the 6th, where he won 27% of the vote to Bush's 32% and Clinton's 40%.

Ohio




Edit:  Bush was able to break 50% in the second district (Cincinnati suburbs) while Clinton carried the 1st district (Cincinnati w/suburbs) by only a few hundred votes.  

Clinton's best showing was in the 11th district (Cleveland), where he broke 70%.

nice work Smiley

btw, this site has CD maps for every state for the 90s (under the 2000 election).

Wow, I would've thought a few electoral votes would have exchanged hands, but I guess not.  Thanks for the heads up!  Smiley

I'm itching for you to do a state like Maine or Kansas where Perot did well.
Here you go Smiley
Maine



They actually had this logged in the atlas, which is where I got the CD map from (no point in re-doing it).

Perot lost the second CD by only 4.53%, his best CD in the nation.  LOL

I will now also be getting most of the CD boundries from the atlas (as Niki the Shiwawa pointed out, the boundries for the year 2000 are on the site, and the boundries in 2000 were the same for 1992), while getting the vote % data from the 1996 Almanac of American Politics.

Instead of writing a summary, I will simply take questions and or comments on each map.  I'd be happy to answer.  Smiley

Be warned that the boundaries in some Southern states were not the same as in 2000.

Thanks, I didn't notice that.  Smiley

At least the north is pretty much the same.

Arizona is OK now but I still can't see Maine. Never mind.
How come Clinton lost the Phoenix district?

It's because many of Phoenix's black/hispanic neighborhoods were gerrymandered into the 2nd district.

Although I will usually refrain from writting summaries, it is worthy to note that Perot came in second in the 1st and 3rd districts.

I'm not sure Phoenix has Black neighborhoods in the common sense of the word. It certainly has neighborhoods with elevated Black percentages.

Yes, that's what I meant.

can I see Texas? I wouldn't be surprised if he won Charlie Stenholm's district.

I'll put that on my priority list.  I don't have my book at this moment, so it may take a little while.

How many districts Clinton carried in Texas?

18 for Clinton, 12 for Bush (but Bush won his districts with much bigger average margins of course, which gave him the edge).
