Very good job. It would be even more interesting in the summer though, because now DKE has similar tables (President by state legislative district) for 47 (if i remember correctly) states, and, naturally, there is a great overlap between data here and there. There are some minor errors (D instead of R and vice versa) in some cases. Nevertheless - a great job! For me - a sorted lists (showing where we have a "maverick representation" like those R+30 and above districts represented by Democrats in Louisiana, and D+20 districts, represented by Republicans in Vermont) are most useful. It would be interesting to add one more (ideological) dimension for such cases, because usually these mavericks have to be fairly different in their voting records from "party norm" to hold them.

Thanks!
