Hey just wondering if people would think it would be good to have a thread entirely devoted to alternate election maps.
Election Map Thread?
- Thread starter Razors are for Fish
- Start date
I can't find a map which isn't badly blurred but I have the map of seats in parliament if that's helpful?I would like to request one for Canada please.
Here's an odd map of the UK after a General Election resulting in a hung parliament.
As you can see several things have happened:
- No Lib Dems, they collapsed due to infighting without leaving a strong successor party
- UKIP emerging as a third party with several seats
- The BNP have gained 22 seats
- SNP and Plaid Cymru have gained more seats
- Sinn Feinn and DUP dominate Northern Ireland
- Tory majority in Conservative-UKIP coalition
- YES I KNOW IT'S BIG!

Um just to let you know, even in the recent By-election where the Lib Dems dropped to 6th, the BNP were still behind the Conservatives and UKIP, with only 6% of the vote. They really aren't popular enough to actually win any seats.
I am aware of that. The By election means nothing. This scenario is if early in the 2000's the Lib Dems fall apart and the momentum picked up by the UKIP and BNP gains in the European Parliament Election is followed through in the general election.

Here's a map I made a while back for an ASB project.
It's the 2005 election in the UK if you eliminate the top three votes in each constituency
(if only three parties stood, I eliminated the top two).
The result is a hung parliament with UKIP as the largest party, followed by the BNP and the Greens.

Here's a map of Canada split up into all 308 electoral districts that I took from wiki and colored with all the shades of the current MP (Liberal, Conservative, NDP, Bloc Quebecois, Independent, Vacant).
This is current, as in today (hopefully), so not really alternate. I chained up all the Islands together so it should be simple one-click party changing for any who need it.

Here's another political decapitation map, this one made for the 2010 election (with a colour key this time). Remember, top three vote scorers are eliminated in each constituency. For more details, see this thread.
