Where I live would be the spot where the war will first start, So I would have the choices of being a slave or a part of a resistance group. I would choose to fight the evil commies.

Bung:
Look for a county by county red/blue map of the United States for the 2004 election. Only the biggest cities are blue, the rest of the nation is red. That means, over 98% of the land mass of this country voted for Bush, only the minority of land owners voted for Kerry. Not that it matters, it was a landslide win for Bush. But it’s interesting to see all the poor farmers voting for one guy while all the rich millionaires and billionaires that own the city lands voting for the other guy.

I hav eseen that map.
I have also seen teh one that used bleding of red and blue to represent the strength of teh Bush vote.
Amazing thing is, the entire nation is almost uniformly purple on that map…
-
I have not seen that one. I have seen the seperation by county and the seperation by state. (I think the state’s the least accurate.)
The bleeding one’s probably the most accurate, as long as they bled it based on percentages, not just 50/50 when it wasn’t 80% or more for one side or the other.

That’s kinda neat, but I don’t think it’s very accurate. For instance, Illinois is purple…now I know I am the ONLY republican in the entire state of Illinois, so how do I personally change the entire state to purple???
*that was a joke, in case you missed it.

One of the things that stands out to me is in North Carolina. Most of the stte is red or purple. But look at the top center. That big blue square is Durham, NC (actually, Orange County).
And I find it also rather interesting that the only areas that are REALLY red, are those areas that are nearly devoid of population.
Oh and Jen… while Illinois may be purple… Cook County is as blue as can be :-)
-
thats one is terrible. I’ve seen two after this one 3. priceton of all places has no liberal bias eh. Kind of reminds me of berkely universities “scientific studies”.
-
And you think it is more valid to show it as just “red” whehter the vote was 50.1% or 99.9%?
-
no.
-
Then you get the Purple Map.

So, what do you have against Barney, Gays, and Prince?!?!?!

Don’t I know it! Cook County is also one of the most morally corrupted coutnies in the United States of America. Whether that’s because of the in-duh-viduals running it or because of the party, I don’t know.

anyone got another map?
-
You can get the one form Sean Hannity’s site if you want the red and blue only map. But you said you did not think the one that was just “red” whehter 501% or 99.9% was valid.
