An Amazing Site
This is a really amazing site: Dave Leip’s Atlas of US Presidential Elections. It is very enlightening to me to go through the years on the county view. There is a pattern, and you can make some educated guesses about the upcoming election. Particularly telling for me was the 1984 election between Reagan and Mondale (following the 1980 election.) I also appreciated, like Matthew, that the right people are the Reds on these maps.
