election map

Political results display

An election map is a visual representation of voting results across geographic regions, typically color-coded by party or candidate.

Red and blue maps showing U.S. presidential results by state are the most familiar form: The election map showed a sea of red in the middle of the country.

Variants include county-level maps and cartograms that size regions by population rather than land area.
