2008 U.S. gubernatorial elections. Instead of doing state-by-state maps, county results are displayed at the U.S. map.



Red, of course, denoted Democratic victory in each county, while Blue Republican.

This map shall serve as a basis for next, more complex, map to follow.

So Vermont voted all Republican and New Hampshire voted all Democrat?

Yes. Douglas carried all VT counties, while Lynch carried all NH counties.

Notice Missouri: Nixon and Obama didn't share a win in a single county in the entire state

Huh?  Nixon won all of Obama's counties.

Right, I screwed this one. Most of maps use D-blue R-red scheme and it's difficult to follow sometimes.

I'll fix it tomorrow.

A totally useless map, denoting birth counties of the 20th/21st centuries U.S. Presidents (since Hoover was born in a city located in two Iowa counties and I have no clue, in which exactly he was born, I denoted two).



Red is, of course, birth county of a Democratic President; Blue Republican and yellow is a county where both Democratic and Republican Presidents were born.


Born farrest North: Calvin Coolidge
Born farrest South (contiguous states): Lyndon B. Johnson
Born farrest East: John F. Kennedy and George H. W. Bush
Born farrest West: Richard Nixon

Patrick, I know. I meant contiguous states.

Mecha, I appreciate that etc., but I was already in a half way of making such maps, and now I have to throw it away...

Here's an map denoting 20th/21st Centuries losing presidential nominees (Democratic, Republican and major third party, who received electoral voter or surpassed 5% of the popular vote) counties of birth.



Red: Democratic (Parker, Bryan, Cox, Davis, Smith, Stevenson, Humphrey, McGovern, Mondale, Dukakis, Gore, Kerry)
Blue: Republican (Hughes, Landon, Willkie, Dewey, Goldwater, Dole)
Green: Progressive (La Follette)
Yellow: Libertarian (Hospers)
Orange: Dixiecrat/American Independent (Thurmond and Wallace)
Gray: Independent (Anderson and Perot)
Dark red: Socialist (Debs)

The map is denoting only those candidates who never became Presidents.

Blue: Republican nominee (Butler, Knox, McNary, Bricker, Warren, Lodge, Miller, Dole, Kemp, Palin)
Green: Progressive (Johnson, Wheeler)
Oragne: Dixiecrat/American Independent (Wright, LeMay)
Dark Red: Socialist (Seidel)
Yellow: Libertarian (Nathan)
Gray: Independent/Reform (Lucey, Stockdale, Choate)


The next map wil be of a diffrent kind.

There was n sun today. But it was rainy and I feel I have a little cold.

So, making this map was the only thing I was able to do:

2008 Senate elections, county results, at a nationwide map.

 

As of Wyoming, county results of two races (regular with Enzi and special with Barrasso) were identical. As of Mississippi, I covered only special, which was somehow competitive (Wicker v. Musgrove), rather than safe regular (Cochran v. some sacrificial lamb).

I'm sorry about Alaska, which reports results only by electoral districts, rather than her administrative districts (county equivalent).

Kal, would you teach me how to make one of those maps? I could really use it for my timeline...

Not hard. I use this blank version to fill: http://www.jared-lee.com/blog/images/Misc/blank_county_map.png

(I'm then filling it in paint, which is, sadly, time-consuming stuff)
