Election Results by Congressional Districts, OFFICIAL THREAD

[Fuzzy]

Here's Manhattan, with colors for 1936




lol so many districts.  

And here's Manhattan back in 1924:

I don't know if it's the fact that 1936 is unanimously Democratic or what, but it seems like that in 1924 the Democrats were actually stronger in parts of lower Manhattan.  Specifically in Districts 13 and 16.
Could this have something to do with intra-party feuds (ie Roosevelt vs. Tammany Hall)?

I don't think so, actually.  It must just be the blue contrasting with the red in 1924 to make the Democratic shades look stronger by comparison.

I only have my big book of congressional districts until the 25th, so............

Fuzzy, if you still have it, and have time, I'd be interested in seeing which counties (or cities, areas, etc.) have the longest streak of being represented by one party or the other.

[Jackson]

Today is the 25th, so he probably doesn't have it anymore.

[asexual trans victimologist]

The book is in my university library, so on Monday I might be able to run down and look and see if I can find the answer to nclib's question.

[realisticidealist]

The book is of course in my university's library, but I think they closed for the day already.

Switching it up now:



House Elections, 2000

[Fuzzy]

I'll have a map comparing the presidential and congressional results up sometime soon.

[Fuzzy]

Here's the map comparing the 2000 presidential and congressional elections:






Dark red=District that voted for Democratic presidential candidate Al Gore, and elected a representative that caucused with Democrats

Red= District that voted for Democratic presidential candidate Al Gore, and elected a representative that caucused with Republicans



Dark Blue= District that voted for Republican presidential candidate G.W. Bush, and elected a representative that caucused with Republicans

Blue=  District that voted for Republican presidential candidate G.W. Bush, and elected a representative that caucused with Democrats

[Fuzzy]

Does anyone want to add any maps?  I like it when more people are involved. 

[Fuzzy]

BTW have we made the maps for 2004 yet? 

[freepcrusher]

House of Representatives Elections in 1994. Sorry about the EV thing being wrong.

It's fine, thanks. 

[Jackson]

I have congressional maps for 2004 if you want them, Fuzzy.

[Fuzzy]

I have congressional maps for 2004 if you want them, Fuzzy.

Sure, that would be great! 

[Fuzzy]

While I was at it, I made the 2000 presidential CD map.  Even though the atlas already has it, I thought it would be cool to add it to the thread, and to put the map template I made to extra use.    


2000 Presidential Election, Results by Congressional District

[Joe Republic]

I know I could just scan through this thread, but which congressional election years do we have in full so far?

[Fuzzy]

Let's see, I've done 1932-1936, 1940, 1968, 1970, 1974-1980, 1984 and 1988 (using the template provided by Shilly), and 1992 through 2000.

And realisticidealist did a lot of stuff from the 40's and 50's.

[Joe Republic]

Which elections are you missing the maps for, and which ones the data?

[Fuzzy]

Hmm, pretty much anything pre-1920 for the data as well as the maps.  I might go back to the university to get that big congressional book again.  lol

[Joe Republic]

Oh, I ran into the same trouble finding pre-1920 data, but I'll keep trying to look. 

[Fuzzy]

Thanks, I appreciate it! 

[Fuzzy]

Bump



I'm starting work on 1982.

[Fuzzy]

Sorry, I may have been a little bit distracted by a video game, so I don't have the map done yet..........

This is such an awesome thread - I'm not a fan of  the nondescript new title, since I went looking for these presidential election maps and didn't even recognize it even though it was stickied at the top of the page. It should say be "election result maps by congressional district" or something like that.
