Shading effect

[edit]

Would it be possible, or even a good idea, to instead of just showing counties as win/lose, show them as "shaded" for how strongly they went to one candidate? Similar to how general elections are done, the darker the color the higher the % of win was for a candidate.

On as small as a scale of just a few pixels, I think that shading a county would be too confusing. CoolKid1993 (talk) 21:00, 10 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
It was done for the presidential election, so it's entirely possible to do for this map. I think it's also beneficial, because of the way this campaign has gone with delegate proportion. Obama has won by larger margins that Clinton in the states he won. Also, for example Missouri. Clinton has a very large majority of districts won, but lost the popular vote to Obama who only won a couple districts. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 207.118.1.62 (talk) 03:51, 11 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Good idea but it would be too difficult to do, in my opinion. HoosierStateTalk 01:38, 14 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Washington primary

[edit]

Do we even need this on the map? We don't have other contests for other states on this map (that don't award delegates). Unless somebody strongly objects, I'm going to remove it. I'm going to save the orginal version so if somebody does object I can upload the one with the Washington Primary included.HoosierStateTalk 00:48, 21 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
