Great maps! Can you list the district numbers of the Dems who opposed gay marriage (and any Repubs who voted for it)?

Democrats who voted no: 6, 23, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 32, 38.
Republicans who voted yes: 9.

No actual vote in the House, so I can't give you a list there.

Seeing how many white Obama districts...

6 - McCain
23 - white-plurality
25 - black
26 - black
27
28
29 - McCain
30
32
38 - McCain

8 McCain Dem FOR gay marriage
9 McCain Repub FOR gay marriage

So districts 23, 27, 28, 30, and 32 are white majority (or plurality in the case of 23) in 2000 and voted for Obama. Does anyone know anything about such districts? Perhaps some could be black-majority now, or is there a culturally conservative Obama vote, or just a maverick Senator?

27B is subdivided to allow for localized representation, so majority-black/Democrat P.G. Co doesn't out vote conservative rural Calvert county.

We absolutely have the most ridiculously complicated legislative districts in the country, unless someone else has a better example.

And primary Mike Miller?  He is a Democrat's Democrat to the core.

Yes, Senate district 27 voted for Obama. I've corrected my original post.
