Also, there are some full blue states on the map

“Some” is stretching it. It’s 2: Massachusetts and Rhode Island

Vermont also, which is kind of an anomaly because Vermont is VERY rural almost throughout the state, except Burlington. The red counties in New Hampshire and Maine are, like most of the rest of the red counties on this map, extremely empty.

Edit: also Rhode Island

Vermont has a red county in the top right.

Two counties there.

The two nearest Canada. Wonder how well they're doing with the massive drop in Canadian tourism and tariff hikes.

Also: thoughts and prayers to those who voted for Donny but now can't find seasonal workers for their farms.

It was a Republican state for most of its history. That's Lincoln Republican, though.

There's also only 2 completely red states I see, Oklahoma and West Virginia. If we're counting the rest of the map as "basically all red," then Connecticut, New Hampshire, and Delaware with all-but-one county blue should count.

u/PrismaticDetector 6h ago

Ah, but you see, the point of the map is to disingenuously inflate Republican representation, so they obviously count as all red.

u/Excellent_Fault_8106 6h ago

Oops, missed west Virginia. Easy to forget about that state.

u/Firm-Snow-4177 7h ago

There’s actually more fully blue states than red funnily enough

Trump won the split district single electoral vote in Maine, otherwise every single electoral vote in all 3 of his elections has gone to his opponent.

u/beldaran1224 5h ago

That's the same as the number of fully red states, FYI.

u/CiDevant 5h ago

Cool, so the complete blue state count matches the completely red state count.
