RI's 2016 Precinct Map Thread

[mianfei]

Anybody have New Hampshire or Maine?

Those are two I would really want, more than any other state outside the West along with Vermont. Even earlier election precinct maps for those state do not seem very good.

California:

Are the Democratic precincts in Siskiyou and Inyo Counties Native American? That's the most obvious explanation, but they do not look Democratic enough to obviously be that, and I do not know of any Native reservations in those counties (Siskiyou last voted Democratic in 1992; Inyo has not done so since 1964).

I assume Democratic precincts in eastern Mariposa and Tuolumne Counties are associated with public service workers in Yosemite, who would be severely affected by major climatic changes or even Republican government cuts?

Lake, CO

Falls Church (city), VA
Fairfax (city), VA
Washington, DC
Manhattan, NY
Dukes, MA
Nantucket, MA

To add to your list:

Berkshire, MA
Chittenden, VT
San Francisco, CA

I don't know if there are any more.

I was looking for this list!

Two more:

• Bristol, RI (three townships)
• Ogala Lakota/Shannon, SD

In addition, if we aggregate Alaska precinct data by county-equivalent we have two (neighbouring) Census Areas in the Unorganized Borough where HRC carried every precinct:

• Nome Census Area, AK
• Kusilvak/Wade-Hampton Census Area, AK

It’s remarkable that the largest county in area with no Trump precincts – Hawaii County – should be on a remote island state. The largest in the contiguous US is Cook County, MN – ski resort country – and it’s notable how Cook has became more Democratic than neighbouring counties that were banner McGovern counties in 1972.

And what were the largest counties without a single HRC precinct?

Surprisingly not Utah County, Utah, which had a single Clinton precinct. Otherwise, here are a sampling of the largest I could find:

St. Charles County, Missouri (pop. 360,485)
Jefferson County, Missouri (pop. 218,733)
Williamson County, Tennessee (pop. 202,686)
Clermont County, Ohio (pop. 197,363)
Butler County, Pennsylvania (pop. 183,862)
Livingston County, Michigan (pop. 180,967)
Hernando County, Florida (pop. 173,094)
Johnson County, Texas (pop. 150,934)
Citrus County, Florida (pop. 140,031)
Washington County, Wisconsin (pop. 131,887)
Parker County, Texas (pop. 116,927)

Some more with no HRC precincts:

• Benton County, Arkansas (population 258,291) – this is hard to see because there are some resort Democratic areas in highly GOP counties surrounding it
• Santa Rosa County, Florida (population 170,497)
• Sullivan County, Tennessee (population 156,823)
• Randolph County, North Carolina (population 142,358)
• Wilson County, Tennessee (population 132,781)
• Canadian County, Oklahoma (population 129,582)
• Jasper County, Missouri (population 118,596)
• Jefferson County, New York (population 116,229)
• Douglas County, Oregon (population 108,457)
