Maps of the Vote
Bored of the Red and Blue maps of the country? Well how about a county-by-county breakdown, or a red to blue gradient for each state?
The definitive map of the vote (the one I wanted) is now available.

A regular red & blue map.

This map shows the each state and how they voted on a gradient from red to blue based on the percentage of voters. The idea is to have a graphic that's less polarizing than the only red or blue maps you keep seeing on the news.

Election Results by County
http://www.usatoday.com/news/politicselections/vote2004/countymap.htm
Square miles of counties won:
| Bush | 3.28 million sq. mi. |
| Kerry | 741,000 sq. mi. |

2000 for comparison
I would love to see a county-by-county gradient map. That would really show us how people (not electorates) in each area voted.
