May be got with blind guesswork, but creating it required some research.
Ignore the Maine & Nebraska CDs.
Grey means tied. Vermont is tied between Democrats and Independents.
Hint: Look at the EV.

Here's a stab-the number of Congresspeople born in each state?
DING. We have a winner.

I got lucky, I was looking up the Minnesota congressmen right before I saw this and noticed a number were born in ND, I wonder why that is.

Yeah, three of them - Martin Olav Sabo, Jim Ramstad, Colin Peterson. I think there's a strong out-migration pattern. IIRC Hubert Humphrey was born in ND too.
Looks good for BRTD's future political career. Smiley

oh, cummon, guess already.  Okay, here's a hint: it has nothing to do with presidential candidates.
That said, guess and bump!

Seem to. Three of MN's eight are originally from there.

Winfield, generally what we do here is post maps and then others think of theoretical races. As opposed to what you are doing, which appears to be the political equivilant of a wet dream. Tongue

I'll solve this one. It's based on 1976 and 2000. I had every party increase by as much (as a percentage of the vote) over the 1976 total as they actually decreased, or decrease as much as they actually increased.

Crudely put indeed, however, the offending maps shall be deleted from this site without further adieu, so as to not offend the sensitivities of any other posters on this thread.   

Maps I had posted 
1.  GOP Mark Sanford vs. Dem Patty Murray, Sanford wins all but state of Washington and DC.
2.  GOP George Allen vs. Dem Barney Frank, Allen wins all but state of Massachusetts and DC.
I had put the answers with the maps instead of leaving the answers blank.  Next time I will put up maps witn no answers.  Sorry!

No, the only states east of the Mississippi Kerry didn't get over 40% in were Indiana, Kentucky, Alabama, and Mississippi.

And he didn't crack 60% in Vermont, either.
It's a trendline based on 96 and 04 Dem percentages. If current trends continued (they won't o/c), Idaho and Oklahoma would be under 30% by 2012, and Utah under 20%.

I have no clue whatsoever.
