That one county in Maine will be such an eyesore, though.  Wink

Seriously, McCain pulled off the county sweep in Oklahoma, and Obama did in New England - Maine as well as Hawaii.

I did not expect Alaska to be that Republican, nor Delaware to be that Democratic (Obama won Kent County!).  Maybe there is a VP effect.

Utah looks funny with three blue counties.  And Orange County, CA looks so lonely.

Wisconsin and Iowa are just shocking, countywise.

Yeah, Wisconsin is crazy, as is Obama winning Kent County (and somewhat comfortably too). And a complete sweep of Vermont and New Hampshire. Never thought I'd see that.

Obama winning Kent county actually fits the pattern of the election very well.
