re: 2016 Electoral College Map scaled by population / electoral votes

I think that Weagle’s point is that this map
might provide a more-realistic understanding of the 2016 vote than this map
In that the second map looks unrealistically impressive for the GOP, given that it won lots of states with vast open spaces and almost no people. As a GOP voter, I always cringe when my compatriots beat their chests about the second map.

We all got his point, counselor. You must be a blast at parties.

Actually...
Now the problem is that Progressives are moving away from the areas they have successfully destroyed and are working to turn much of those red areas blue. It is a fresh host for the parasite.
Once they are done fricking that up, they will move somewhere else.
Wash. Rinse. Repeat.

Can someone explain the scale of Texas? Looks off to me

Actually, I think this map best represents the election:

Construction of the map is actually pretty impressive, keeping the shapes recognizable and the relations to adjoining states accurate, while warping the scales of all the states.
But I am a cartophile, so maybe I am easily impressed on this issue.

How did this board survive before you were here to explain every single OP to us? You are very impressed with yourself.

You are really an unpleasant little person, aren’t you?

I have agreed with Weagle, and I have disagreed with Weagle, but I don’t think I have ever mistaken Weagle for an HRC apologist.

It doesn’t matter. If you say anything negative, imply anything negative, or present any information which could be construed to be negative in any way towards DJT, it means you’re prog-filth scum that still thinks it’s her turn. Doesn’t matter who you voted for or what your political beliefs are.

This map is fake news:
I noticed right away that it has my county (Pierce CO, WA) as red when it went D.
