Will you be able to put all these together when you're done into a commune map for the whole of France?

I'm attempting as much, so stay tuned.

No big surprise here, except that Chirac isn't so strong around golfe of Morbihan.
Ille-et-Vilaine will be the funniest in Bretagne.

Inner Trégor is leftist even in bad years.
Poor peasants, some industrial falls, despite telecoms factories and research centres in the 1960s-1970s.

I found some place which has results of old elections by old constituency, including the 1965 and 1981 presidential elections. Sadly, their results for 1974 are all wrong and all, but I'll email them. At any rate... here's two birthday presents:





The 1965 map is a new favourite of mine. The polarization on there is quite something. De Gaulle won upwards of 70-75% in the most fervent clerical areas.

I could do some constituency-results maps for any of the candidates in 65, 69 and 81 and I wager I could do the same for specific lists in the 79 and 84 Euros. Requests?

I have 1974 numbers by old constituencies... but only on a big book or on old Le Monde papers Sad

1965 is so neat: it's a real pleasure Cheesy

Many trends of the 1980s and 1990s were already encapsulated in the 1981 result.

Shocked Alsace-Lorraine... And the Northwest belt surrounding Brittany...

Indeed, it's pretty nice and extremely contiguous. I didn't imagine FRance was so polarize back then.

Why is the city of Bordeaux so conservative? It is an island of blue in a sea of red on the 1981 map.

Money, but also a powerful conservative political machine (especially back then).

It's funny how you have these random Mitterand holdouts even in the middle of overwhelmingly De Gaulle areas. Maps be great. I should do some more of my own...

Money, but also a powerful conservative Gaullist political machine (especially back then).

Fixed.

Chaban-Delmas was Bordeaux mayor (and still efficient at the time... it didn't last after his premiership in 1969-72).

And remember that de Gaulle's maps were always marked by WW2: the Atlantic Coast (Landes is far more "surprising" for our nowadays eyes than Bordeaux) overvalued de Gaulle, but because it's the map of German occupation !

Yes, de Gaulle's maps were: German occupation in 1940-42 plus conservative Massif Central and Lyonnais.
For many people in these regions, de Gaulle was and remained a myth.

Of course, the South was also occupied after November 1942, but this occupation was more out of necessity, with a sparsed military presence or just units which rest after periods on the Ost Front. So, the occupation in the South wasn't the same.
And, cnversely, Resistance wasn't organized in the same way in North and South (i.e. north and south of the demarcation line): de Gaulle and his envoys were far more important in the North.





As for small red dots in the North, Al, well, they don't really weaken the great homogeneity of de Gaulle' map: how could Saint-Nazaire, Lorraine's mines and steel areas, Sochaux-Montbéliard, Nord-Pas-de-Calais coal mines, industrial areas of Le Mans and Seine around Rouen,  have voted in a different way than for Mitterrand ?

It would have been even more surprising than De Gaulle sweeping Paris City and Lille, of course. But it still looks slightly amusing Smiley

There wasn't a difference regarding Massif Central or Nice, of course. But in some other regions like Gironde, and regarding Chaban, there was a difference: participation and some other social ideas of gaullism weren't fake, even if 1965 was already late in the history of gaullism Tongue.

Bordeaux and Gironde had an old conservative bourgeoisie, for sure, but local right politicians weren't so much conservative (except in the Medoc).

more cool stuff by old constituencies:

Rocard in 1969:


and a very interesting map of the 1979 EU elections (UDF 27.6%, PS 23.5%, PCF 20.5%, RPR 16.3%)

It is me, or the Rocard 1969 maps looks like much more late maps for the PS?

That's actually an interesting comment. The overlap isn't entirely there (the mining belt of the Nord, Strasbourg, Limousin, old SW, Allier etc), but there are the signs of the future evolutions of the PS. It makes sense given that the PS' electorate has been gentrified significantly in recent years with the left-wing leanings of the new middle-classes, professionals and bobos. The PSU's base being partly students, future professionals and future bobos in their revolutionary phase, it makes sense.

Wow, the Paris Metro really liked Rocard.
