What's new in the 2020 edition?

While the 2016 Muddy Map uses vote totals on the vertical scale, this 2020 version has been upgraded to use vote density (in Votes / km^2). This more accurately accounts for disparities in land area, since county areas can vary by three orders of magnitude.

Current upper fence: 50.66 Votes / km^2

Note:

This map is regularly updated with the latest data that we receive. Votes are still being counted. Some counties in this map may have incomplete data, and relative vote totals may still be in flux. In addition, we don't have Alaska vote data processed yet, so Alaska is blank, for now.
