Compared to constantly seeing the “winner takes all” election result maps, I think this type of map is a good reminder that a strong diversity of opinion exists in most states.

As someone on the east side, it hurts. I know Washington state was the only state to go more blue this election, but I’m sure the part that wants to become Super Idaho did their best (worst?) to change that.
At least people are still pretty friendly over there, and really down to earth. I spent some time in Eastern Washington this spring and had a really good time. I was in a small town and it seemed like a long lost piece of Americana.
