Is it the voter turnout of minorities in various states, with lighter colors meaning lower turnout amongst those demographics?

Is it how often a state has been one by the GOP since Eisenhower, with dark blue the most and light blue the least and Washington D.C red because it hasn't been won by a Republican in the past century.

Not quite, but you are right about the red.

Do the colors contrast states won or lost by certain GOP candidates?

Yes, but lost could also be interpreted as never carried.

Well, Minnesota hasn't been carried by a Republican since Nixon in 1972.  Washington, as you have already conceded, hasn't been carried by any Republican.  It's the light and dark blue that have me stumped.

Nixon is a scumbag and Dubya...bleh.

I guess Lincoln and Ike.  Considering that D.C is on the map, I'm going to say that this map contrasts Eisenhower and Reagan somehow.  Beyond that I dunno.  They both one landslides yet the map seem fairly evenly divided.

The problem is D.C isn't including in the Electoral Maps until 1964, so we have from then to 2008 to work with.  Now that I think about it, that rules out Ike, leaving only Nixon, Ford, Reagan, Bush Sr., and Bush Jr.  Unless Nixon has been upgrading to hero status I am still at a loss.

Here goes Wink:

Dark Blue+Light Blue= States Reagan carried
Light Blue+Moderate Blue= States Lincoln Carried
Red= States (Districts) Neither Reagan nor Lincoln carried

I see.  That explains the regional divide.  DC really threw me off, though.

Can we go ahead and clarify that this is data from elections 1968 and up because of the presence of D.C?
