1916/2000 comparison :

Blue : Wilson/Bush
Light blue : Hughes/Bush
Light red : Wilson/Gore
Red : Hughes/Gore

Also, New Hampshire is the wrong color : it should be dark blue.
Extremely close, and New Hampshire is the right color.

Ok, I got it.
It's a comparison between 1916, 2000 and 2004, with dark red meaning voting for Hughes, Gore and Kerry and dark blue being Wilson and Bush. Light shades are combinations of those.

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

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

Any guesses?

A virus wipes out every single Democrat in America, rendering the GOP the lone party.

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.

Just putting this out here as a hint, this map might serve as a message to Republicans focused on Dixie.

Red-Obama/Eisenhower
Blue-McCain/Eisenhower
Green-McCain/Stevenson
White-Obama/Stevenson
Yellow-McCain/Eisenhower/Stevenson

Dallasfan, did I get your map correct?

Not quite. More about overall... not so much 'trends', but rather tradition in elections.

@ Rochambeau, yes you did. Tongue
