Jefferson wages a libertarian populist pro-farm campaign.
Adams emphasizes urban and industrial renewal.
This map is 274-264 for Jefferson, but that's probably a maximum - Adams might well do much better.

Thanks for the reply. The map makes sense, though I'm wondering about Vermont in this, though I suppose it could go to the Populist-Libertarian Jefferson campaign.
At first I was thinking Vermont would go to Adams based on regional affiliation and a more communitarian approach to the economy, but Jefferson's emphasis on small farmers and agrarian over industrial and financial interests would resonate there. 

On the other hand, I can imagine Jefferson coming across as kind of fake to Vermonters. It seems like his hypocrisy (which is a matter of historical record) would be much more of an issue in today's environment.

Where do we think the candidates stand on social issues?
