Where did you find the county maps?
1968 Democratic primaries by county. County maps for primaries this early are hard to find.
Although there is a copyright mark on the map, you may want to be clear in your post whether you are posting something you made yourself or found elsewhere.

Oh, I definitely didn't make it myself, county maps take forever. Still, that is now noted in the post.Although there is a copyright mark on the map, you may want to be clear in your post whether you are posting something you made yourself or found elsewhere.
Thanks, just wanted to make sure. I think I remember seeing other ones similar to that posted on the US election atlas forum, there was a megathread (though some of the old imagehostings may be dead now)Oh, I definitely didn't make it myself, county maps take forever.

Right, I didn't know what your methodology was. I'll take 2016 data if you can do it then (no rush, as I know you'll probably be wanting to do Alabama-related stuff in the near future).I could probably construct something for 2016 (by summing the raw votes tabulated by racial group by state, and then dividing by the theoretical eligible population), but only that election.
Results for the special election for Alabama are in. The Talley as of 12/12/2017 11:37 EST:
Doug Jones: 673,236 (49.9%)
Roy Moore: 652,300 (48.4%)
Write In: 22,873 (1.7%)

It seems that for the first time since 1992, an Alabama Democrat has been elected to the US Senate (albeit just barely).
Made this to compare the Alabama result to the last two narrow Democratic senatorial wins there...which is going back a bit.

I may post it on the Deviantart and do a writeup attempting to explain why.No matter what, Winston County remains red.
But seriously I love how erratic the county results are between all three elections.
1962 and 2017 look close to just a palette swap.No matter what, Winston County remains red.
