Presidential Results by Congressional District Project Now Complete

I compiled a map of this throughout, so here it is, finished.



I might do 2004 now.

Do you know how Many CDs were won by Obama ?

242. 193 for McCain.

So, democrats won 15 more districts in the House elections that Obama did...

As has been stated above there were a lot of areas where generic democrats did better than Obama( most of the non black south, Appalachia, East Ohio/West PA). Then there were places where Obama did better than a generic democrat like most of California, Illinois( obviously), and most of the upper midwest. That is actually pretty significant imo, but still in this election a democrats did better at the local level than at the presidential level.

A surprising number of McCain/Democratic CD's; not just from the South.

Actually most of them are in the south plus Ohio, West Virginia and Western Pa. Arizona is easily explained but Colorado is a bit more interesting. Then again the CO-4 was pretty damn close. The northern plains isn't that surprising either.
