I simply converted the colors of the map using gimp.

By the way, where did you get that map of the election results by municipality?

That’s why I like maps like the NYT bubble analysis; they reflect actual county population.

What is happening in Pennsylvania is that the “blue” areas are where most of the people live. The “T” has the smallest population in the State.
