Speaking of votes by Counties, I thought this was an interesting map:
usatoday.com/news/politicselections/vote2004/
You can pretty much pick out the major cities and college towns in the US, but you’ve still got a few blue areas in odd areas of Montana and the Dakotas.
Here’s another map, this time a 3D one where each county is given a height that I think is based on the number of votes by which the candidate won (but there’s no legend, so I’m not completely sure).
