Inspired by Pascal’s analysis of the map overlay for the election results, and the way that Republicans like to say ‘look at all the red states — so much of America supports Bush’

I decided to redraw the US map according to population size, rather than land area.

This version of the US more closely resembles my mental model of the States as well.

This is good, but now split each state into red and blue as Pascal did.
