The Electoral Map blog's Patrick Ottenhoff has posted an informative and amusing 73-image slideshow of some of the "greatest hits" in political geography from last year. See Rudy Guiliani's map ostensibly demonstrating his general election appeal, Dick Morris "flexing his idiocy" with an Electoral College prediction, a map of foreclosure hotspots, and a rundown of which congressmen voted against the bank bailout bill at a crucial point in last year's campaign. Of course, there are also color-coded and "bubble" maps of results in key presidential primaries and in the November race.
Worth checking out. Massachusetts, predictably, does not play much of a role in the cartographic fun.
Great work Patrick. What a great way to sum up a dizzying election year!
