2014 US Congressional Election Results

[Mr.Phips]

WV House vote by county:



I understand Rahall would do well there, but he's at 78% (!) in Lincoln County. Its possible, as fairly few votes were cast there (about 2K), but I'm wondering if thats a tabulation error on the SOS site.

If true, 78% would be a huge improvement even from 2012 (he got 61% there).

Pretty amazing that Mooney won the 2nd with that map.

^ Yeah, I agree.

I could be wrong, but my guess is that the third parties hurt Casey more; there were several counties where the two-party share summed to less than 90% of the vote.

Casey won Kanawha 53/38 but was in the mid/low-30s in most pandhandle counties.

Casey should have been able to win Jefferson and come much closer in Berkeley.  Even Obama nearly won.Jefferson in 2012.

^ I was kinda shocked when I saw that LA-03 went more Republican than LA-01.

It really shows how Republican rural whites have gotten. LA-01 is actually the most white, but Landrieu's crossover appeal in the New Orleans metro cancelled that out.

10 years ago, it would have never seemed that CD3 would be more R than CD5.

Well Dems are always going to have a higher floor in the 5th due to the black population.

No one has the right to complain about Arizona's CDs when there's Ohio and Pennsylvania.

North Carolina too.
