I think it’s still depressing because we have a felon pedophile, and it’s still not entirely blue
Trump’s too old to do anything and everybody knows it. He’s a little bit insane and probably in the early stages of some sort of dementia or alzheimer’s, who knows. so who are his enablers?
It’s a circus staffed with clowns drinking at the olympics instead of looking for missing people. his supporters are either willfully ignorant or emotionally, manipulated by stuff like disinformation on social media, or large corporate news organizations like fox and newsmax, that lie purposefully… Propagandists.
I don’t find this encouraging at all

not adjusting for population has always been the downside of maps like this
The biggest threat to the real problem of the world is the poors uniting against our rich overlords. They must keep us divided by the things that do not matter, sex, race, ethnicity, political beliefs, and nationality. All designed to section people into small groups of nuance that are negligible. What matters is that richest 1% control more wealth than the bottom 95% of humanity combined. They use us and throw us away. They rape, kill, and it would seem even eat our children, and we sit idly by, hoping to scrape enough together to buy our way off of the lowest rungs of their ladder. There is only one way to beat them, and that is to provide for ourselves and each other. Quit buying their over processed manufactured trash, quit supporting their celebrity figure heads, quit eating their poisons, quit allowing their nepotistic ways to keep their inbred children, grand children, and great grand children in positions of power endlessly. Easier said than done, but all great journeys begin with a single step.

The fact that you have people who STILL don’t understand the basics of how voting works is scary, and therefore makes them easier to control. I saw SOM many people during the last couple of elections from the conservative side say “It’s rigged! Most of counties are red, how did it go blue!?” They don’t get that land mass and population density are two different things. Take the city of Atlanta. Probably a higher population than most Midwest state’s counties.

This has the issue of every other attempt to show data on a map. It’s hard to compare places apples to apples, it’s hard to compare slightly different shades of colors, it’s hard. There is less useful information here than a bar graph or pie chart.

I hate living in a 50-50 battleground state during election season. Can’t watch sports (basically the only live tv) without finger on the mute button ready for whatever abhorrent political ads come on during the commercials. I vote in every election so I’m doing my part. But when hundreds of millions of dollars goes towards attack ads/billboards/mailers etc. it just makes it miserable to live through.

No State just votes red, except for apparently Utah

try this site
https://engaging-data.com/county-electoral-map-land-vs-population/
Now use those maps which rescale area by population
Interesting to see California’s shift from split to deep blue.
This just shows how gerrymandering has perverted democracy on BOTH sides.
There are blue people in that red area too
Muddy Maps look even better:

Texas is a lot more purple than they want to admit.
