Light Blue = AMRLP
Dark Blue = ACA
White = No citizens
Brown = SDP
Green = CUP
Yellow = CDP
Grey = Independent
Red = ILP

I think that's it.

Vermont should be green(hint).  DC is gray on purpose.  Blue = Rep, Red = Dem
Some states may be wrong due to my carelessness.  If your guess fits over 45, you're probably right.


congressional control?

No, it's got something to do with house seats though.  Look at Oklahoma.

Party of the newest house member from each state?

Quick and easy, because nobody has posted here for three days:




green = begins and ends with a vowel
red = begins or ends with a vowel
blue = begins and ends with a consonent

Non-political, and definitely a waste of time, but nonetheless:

No, an interesting angle of thought though. The answer is more lexical in nature.

No, it is based solely on the names of the states.

It almost looks like it would be...

Red - no occurance of the letter A
Blue - one occurance of the letter A
Green - multiple occurances of the letter A

...but there are several states for which this doesn't work.

Am I on the right track?
The Carolinas, Nebraska, Montana and California to be precise. All ofthem states depicted in blue that should be green if you're correct. Hmmm....

Yes, ye got it, but I truly did mess that up. *meekly holds hands up*
I suppose this truly belongs in the random maps thread then...

Hints: Nothing to do with color shade,election related.

The red states are the last 6 home states of losing Democratic Presidential candidates.
Still working on the others.

The color scheme has no political correlation at all.  Imagine the different shades of the same color to be completely separate.

Clue #1:  It's to do with the names of the states.

Clue #2:  Two-letter abbreviations of the state names.

Pink: Abbreviation = initials of state name
Light Green: First letter of abbreviation = first letter of state name; Second letter of abbreviation corresponds to second letter of state name and final letter of state name
Blue: First letter of abbreviation = first letter of state name; Second letter of abbreviation = final letter of state name
Red: Abbreviation = first 2 letters of state name
Green: First letter of abbreviation = first letter of state name; Second letter of abbreviation = letter from middle of state name

Good one, would never have gotten it without the clues.

The green states have none of something, the red states have only that thing, and the gray states have some of that thing. The map is apolitical.


Isn't NJ's northern border is a straight-line and isn't most of SC's northern border also in straight lines?
And as Hawaii doesn't have any border, shouldn't it be green?
