Bump. Here's a clue: Fuzzybigfoot was on the right track when he mentioned that 1980 had something to do with the first map.

The second one has to do with 2008.

Yes, that's part of it.

Something about state Governors (for both maps)?

No. If that was the case, then Wisconsin would surely be green, but it is blue on this map. Again, my large hint is that is has to do with the U.S. House of Representatives. Also, someone guessed that it took place in the 1910s, and that was very close, but it wasn't correct.

1890s or 1900s house D, R,Populist?

Very close, but it's not 1890s, 1900s, or 1910s. And the green isn't Populist.

It's in the 1920's and green is Progressive. 

You're correct about the 1920s. I'll just reveal it right now: It's the results for the 1922 U.S. House of Representatives Election. Red are House delegations with a Democratic majority, blue are House delegations with a Republican majority, and green are evenly split House delegations.

No, it isn't. I'll give you a hint. It has to do with candidate percentages in a particular Presidential election.

Antonio, try guessing mine and look at the hint I gave. For yours, I honestly have no idea.

So it's not necessarily one color per candidate?

No, it isn't necessarily one color per candidate. Basically, all of the colors in my map stand for percentages. For instance, states with [insert color here] are states where both [this presidential candidate] and [this presidential candidate] (in the same year, of course) got at least [insert percentage here] of the vote.

The states with the most rednecks (proportionally) get more EVs. Wink

Gah...
Is it the percentages of Smith in the 1928 election with Green being the states he did the best in, then red then blue?

Wrong. 1928 is incorrect. And just hypothetically it could be X color states are states where both candidates got at least 48% of the vote, Y color states be states where both candidates got at least 46% of the vote, and so forth.

Hopefully these maps won't be figured out as fast as my other one was. Tongue





These maps are related, & have nothing to do with politics.

Any guesses?

The top one has something to do with temperature?

You win.

Red-States where both JFK and Nixon got at least 48.00% of the vote in 1960
Blue-States where both JFK and Nixon got at least 46.00% of the vote
Green-States where either JFK, Nixon, or both got less than 46.00% of the vote

Now it's my turn ! Tongue



This one is hard, but if you remember of anothere map I posted several months ago, it might help you. ask me for further hints.
Is this another comparison one?

No, colors don't reflect political parties.

It's about the 2000 census and the 2003 redistricting, just to give you a hint.

Blue: House Seat Priority Values 426-435 (states that made it)
Red: House Seat Priority Values 436-445 (states that didn't make it)

States with dark shades--States that have more than one priority value in that range
States with light shades--States that have just one priority value in that range
Gray states--States with no priority values in that range

My two other maps are still up for grabs, but try out these two (hint: they're related):






The first one has all the Anderson votes going to Carter.
