Thanks to realisticidealist, I have recently collected a treasure trove of MA data and decided to map some elections out.

Very interesting, please continue. Smiley

For shades, I simply copy/paste those of the official Atlas map key. Wink

Much appreciated!

But my main problem is.. I'm illiterate with MS Paint. Tongue

Well, it's a bit hard to explain it... First you have to copy the pic, then paste it on your paint file. Finally, you have to use a tool that allows you to select a color on your pic and use this color. Sorry, but I don't know how to say it better. Tongue

Hmmm.. I will definetly check that out. Thanks man.

Note: I will (eventually) be re-doing all of these previous maps with shades.

I'd love to see if Anderson won any towns in 1980, though I suspect he didn't. Good work so far.

I'll be doing 1980 after I finish 1924, in that case. Be on the look! Smiley

Stevenson: 49.63%
Eisenhower: 48.25%

In a raw vote total, a 702 vote difference.

Also, I'd suggest using a different template for your maps if you can. I can get you a cleaner blank MA town map if you want.

That'd be great!

Yeah. I can do that next (after 1980.)

Sorry for the delay. The weekend has been a little bit hectic.

More maps will be on the way...

Actually, Kennedy's results in Massachusetts are pretty poor if you compare them with following elections. The relative democratic margin of victory was lower in 1960 than in 1964, 68, 72, 96, 2000 and 2004.

MA was on a D trend but was still pretty Republican compared to today.

LOL.

Unfortunately...
.
Dallasfan, I think your 1928 map is missing Enfield (one of the Quabbin towns).

I included it, I just made it rather shoddily as I was in a bit of a hurry to crank this out (since I delayed.) I'll patch it up tonight, along with the Coolidge error.

1928 is fixed.

Also, since uploading a map to the database was rather vexing (though I shall re-attempt later) here is 1964 MA Gov, by County.

I should be good for now. Smiley
