The Yankee Dominion: A Map and World Building Project

Just one thing about Minnesota: I'm thinking that the Deutschpartei should also be in the political system.
But other than that go ahead.
I was thinking that the Gopher's party would sort of be like that but more populist, protectionist and Trump-style. You can have a go at a Minnesota party system if you want though.
 
Someone really wanted Louisiana, so I whipped this up while listening to Ford.

Also, here is a OTL African map. Not all 35%'s are equal of course - those along the Lower Mississippi, or in urban areas are OTL Dem seats, but those in the north are OTL Rep ones. Also of course certain racial /ethnic areas are different in this timeline, but I am going to have one of these accompany each Southern state from now on.

Ethnic Map
I'll repost the ethnic map. Alaska is a very diverse state with a very bare plurality Asian Population which goes Asian>White>>Native>>Slavic Jews who migrated after Russia became a nationalistic republic in the 1870s. Anchorage is also a little smaller then OTL, to transfer pop to the Slavic areas, to represent the migrants.

Some quick ideas for an Alaskan party system:
Party Rossiya: Representing the Slavic community. Frequently a kingmaker in Alaskan politics. Big tent. Frequently accused of being a member of True North in all but name.

True North: the leading party in Alaska, and the natural governing party. A big-tent party fairly similar in nature to Barisan Nasional in Malaysia. It stubbornly sticks to the mild center-left overall, but people of all ideological positions are welcome. Members are:
Alaska Asian Alliance: "triple A", represents Asians
Alaska Native Association: represents Natives
Anglo League: represents Anglos

United Alaska Party: the right-wing opposition. Rarely gets its hands on power.
Socialist Party: represents the most left-wing opposition. Tries to make headway among the Slavs in particular, but to no avail. Trade union support is often bereft for them as well.
Alaska Independence Party: a bunch of loons who rarely get more than one seat.
