For those that might be interested I came up with this map of the 2017 council wards in the old Lothian area.

The new website isnt working for me RN, how did you log in?
Finally managed to sign in and create a fair map for Maryland's districts:
District 1 - 53% Republican, 45% Democrat
District 2 - 50% Republican, 48% Democrat
District 3 - 50% Republican, 48% Democrat
District 4 - 79% Democrat, 20% Republican
District 5 - 80% Democrat, 19% Republican
District 6 - 52% Republican, 47% Democrat
District 7 - 85% Democrat, 14% Republican
District 8 - 71% Democrat, 28% Republican
So I made this. Does anybody have any sort of clue as to what this is supposed to be?
Some of this makes sense, but I don’t see Wyoming voting for a liberal everI would say this is a USA with a westminster-like or parliamentary system of elections. Red is some SPD-like party, yellow is a liberal (in the European sense) party, turquoise is a Mormon special interests party. Blue is a Hispanic-led minority interests party, and Vermont is dominated by the Vermont Union Party, the CSU of America!
I think yellow might be where registered voters that didn’t cast a vote was a majority in 2016, blue is Clinton, Red is Trump, light green is McMullin and dark green is SandersI would say this is a USA with a westminster-like or parliamentary system of elections.

I don’t think that Wallace would do so poorly, especially if Bobby ranI ran Bobby Kennedy in 1968 in President Elect, and the results I got were surprising...
1968
Robert F. Kennedy (D-NY)/Ralph Yarborough (D-TX) - 460 EV, 35,661,532, 52% PV
Richard M. Nixon (R-NY)/Spiro Agnew (R-MD) - 68 EV, 29,556,836, 43% PV
George Wallace (AI-AL)/Curtis LeMay (AI-CA) - 10 EV, 2,647,920, 4% PV
Do you guys think this would be in any way plausible? I’ve been developing a RFK TL for a while, and I’ve been trying to work out the 1968 election.
Bobby had a lot of appeal however with the type of voters Wallace had, in fact many of Bobby’s white blue-collar supporters would go on to vote for Wallace in the general. So I think he would have more support in the south than one would think.I don’t think that Wallace would do so poorly, especially if Bobby ran
I've already said it's a swing map from 2012 to 2016.I think yellow might be where registered voters that didn’t cast a vote was a majority in 2016, blue is Clinton, Red is Trump, light green is McMullin and dark green is Sanders

I wouldn't exactly call a 4-4 map in a state that votes on average 60% Dem - even with the INCREDIBLY outdated 2008 numbers. I wouldn't be surprised if a map like this produced 8-0 D in similar to how NJ's Pub Gerry collapsed spectacularly because it was built off of 2008 numbers.
Geographic bias means that a fair map here is 6-2 D, similar to how a fair map in Wisconsin is 4-2-2 R-D-tossup, or in Massachusetts 8-0-1 D-R-tossup. When I made my 50-state fair map, I found that the regional geographic biases cancelled each other out across the nation, but within states they can vary wildly.
