1. that is very cool

[Stinky The Clown]

2. That actually made me feel better

It made me hopeful to see that the tipping point is very near top. The color actually tends toward blue in many red areas. Yeah, I know it is about trends and this is a snapshot, but it looks better than the other county maps, which are less subtle than this one.

As a geographer I am very gratified at the sudden strong interest in maps at DU!

3. The cable news channels need to be called on using the

more divisive red/blue map. They are so part of the problem. Those channels I believe are actively seeking to create the same kind of conflict in society in general they do on those reality shows. Remember that movie "Brasil"

5. INCREDIBLY SIGNIFICANT DATA!

This demonstrates BOLDLY those states that need to be targeted for battle!

Arkansas
Arizona
Alabama
North Carolina
Iowa
South Carolina
New Mexico
Nevada
Colorado
Tennessee
West Virginia

All of these are extremely winnable in 2006 if we target House and Senate seats carefully and deliberately!

6. Thank you for that

I'm sick of all this Red State vs. Blue State nonsense.

[SaintLouisBlues]

13. It is nonsense

Another poster shows 45% of Shrub votes are from blue states

43% of Kerry from the red.

We need to convince people to see the light no matter where in OUR country they live.

7. Yes, this is more to the truth. thank you.

8. i've been doing these RBG maps for every pres. election available!

9. this map needs "data-blasting"...in the name of

"bipartisanship"... and reaching out to the rest of America

How could they resist it?

10. Here's a 3d version

[Kat 333]

11. Thank YOU ...

For posting this 3D version. It's soooo much easier to read. Much appreciated.

12. Ahhhhhhh...thankyou Kat 333...someone finally adding science to my

incessant "Dirt Dont Vote" screeds.

[Robert Oak]

14. observations

shows major cities went blue dramatically.

Shows sections of job loss correlating with "blue".

also interesting is the red, many are very isolated areas.

(and just blame PCB poisoning on Ohio and Indiana :))

No real newspapers, no real TV and they can't afford cable/satellite,
very low Internet access penatration and usage.


Looks surmountable with education frankly to me.

I am always shocked at the ignorance of the American people and since
major media barely covered the truth...

I mean most of the newspapers in this area just do not ever run stories like the NYT does at all...it's all glossed over, white bread news.

so, it is possible they don't know.

15. Wow! Thank your ever so much. And by the way, Welcome to DU!
