It’s been long enough that I’m going to go ahead and give the answer.

Red means that the last time the state had a change in EV’s it lost electoral votes.
Blue means that it most recently gained.
Grey means that it never had anything other than 3.

When did Delaware have more than 3?

Delaware had two Representatives and hence 4 EV's as a result of the 1810 census.  The 1820 census brought the State back down to 1 Representative where it has been ever since.  So a 4 EV Delaware existed only for the 1812, 1816, and 1820 elections.

I'll give the answer to my third too.

The third last letter-consonant or vowel.

It's been nigh on a week, so here's the answer:

Red:  The state has had a candidate win the state with 70% or more of the vote [1836 on]
Blue:  No candidate has carried the state with 70% or more of the vote since 1836.

Here's a new pattern:

As a hint, the choice of green instead of grey was deliberate for this political map.

We already had this map, but it was shaded last time.


Last time each state was wrong.

I'll just go ahead and answer mine...Blue states have drifted Republican since 1904, Red states have drifted Democratic since 1904, and Gray states were non-existant in 1904...

I'm not even going to research this, and I don't know what the hell I'm talking about, but as a quick guess...

Party of representative in the last CD?

Connection problems were holding me back too (why does the website have this problem?). I guess I was just clicking faster. Wink

A population pattern.  Blue and Red are arbitrary.

The states Karl Rove was obsessed with?

Blue=Karl Rove visited there?  or something?  and Bush won.
Red= See blue, but Kerry won
Grey= Karl Rove was not connected w/that state
