Political Maps of the US
There’s plenty of creative cartography going on at the moment, as people render and rearrange North America along political lines:
- We’ve got Canada
2.0, very promising for trips to Baha. - A gradiated
view representing voting trends more subtly. Here’s the same one with
contour
lines for population. - Dave Pollard has an analogous
map of Canada. In his comments on that entry, I take Dave to task for
characterizing right-of-centre parties in Canada as "conservative/christian". - This one just shows the counties which
switched allegiance between 2000 and 2004. What’s the regional name for
the chunk of the US around Missouri and Kentucky? The Heartland, maybe?
UPDATE: Augie points out this great map that (presumably) reflects voting trends based on population density. The conclusion: if you live in a big city, you’re likey to have voted Democrat.
