Someone e-mailed in that they were confused because of the color scheme we use for these images:

Here is an example...

I know that these maps come from US Atlas, but they could mislead people
because the standard color scheme is now Blue for Democratic states, Red
for Republican. If someone glances at these maps on Wikipedia, they may
get the wrong idea about the elections. Just a comment!

Angy suggestions on how we should fix this so it's less confusing? Cbrown1023 talk 20:24, 17 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
