Israeli election and demographic maps

Southern Israel

Map1:


Map 2 continues directly to the south of the first (I had to split it since it went over 2,500 pixels combined):



Note that there are some Bedouins who live in unrecognized villages or as nomads who vote heavily for the UAL-TAAL but don't show up in this map.

[Sibboleth]

More Meretz than I'd have guessed.

More Meretz than I'd have guessed.

Yes, but Meretz only wins little villages (this applies to the whole country).

[Sibboleth]

Oh sure, sure. It's just that I'm mildly surprised that there are still as many of those little villages as there are.

I can't find good maps for the settlements, so I'm going to do the 2006 election now.

Starting with the south:



Part 2:

[Sibboleth]

Much of that red being a personal vote for Peretz?

Much of that red being a personal vote for Peretz?

Yes, it includes a lot of Mizrahi places that would normally vote Likud, except in this election the Likud was terrible, and because of Peretz Labour was much more appealing than usual.

Jerusalem district 2006:

[Sibboleth]

Ah, I forgot that UTJ topped the poll in Jerusalem that election.

Likud performed so badly in 2006 that the 3 biggest parties in Jerusalem were all religious (UTJ, Shas, NU-NRP).

This thread is a thing of beauty, thankyouthankyouthankyou.

Any chance of some comparative maps, such as Labor v Kadima or Likud v Y.B.?

Maybe, I don't yet know what I will do when I am done with the current maps, for which I plan to go back until the 1999 election eventually (this will take awhile). Although doing such comparative maps might be a problem as all the parties are irrelevant in many places.

I made a new version of the 2009 centre map to fit in with the others so that it covers every part of the country (minus the settlements):

And here Is 2006:

Continuing with the 2003 election, starting with Centre:



An interesting thing that does not show up on the map is that Shinui, while it came first in almost nowhere, came second in lots of places (to Likud in a lot of those blue cities, and to Labour in a lot of Labour villages).
