  1. While I did cherry pick the map that closest resembled the 2020 election, I think it’s really interesting to see how the party demographics have switched over time. While not a perfect flip, you can definitely see how the Black Belt has switched from predominantly republican to predominantly democratic.

  2. So many idiots voting against their own interests just illustrates how bigotry and religion go hand in hand.

    Back then, Democrats were the racist party. But then the parties switched. And now Republicans are the racist party…

  4. If you really want to see something fun, overlay Cretaceous-period sediments.

  5. Are we just gonna ignore that one middle county that hasn’t changed in 160 years ??
