Small precincts with so few votes that reporting them would identify specific voters. Apparently California reports them specially outside their precincts.

We added 2024 election data for CA. Thanks to Josh Metcalf and the team at @votehub.com !!!!
Note: privacy precincts were not included, so statewide undercounts Pres by about 15,000 votes total.

We added a new feature: Restrict Water, which restricts your map by removing most coastal water. It's enabled only for NH, MA, CT, NJ and DE, but more states will be added soon.
Access the feature in Map Settings/Restrict To. You can compare such a map to other statewide maps of the same plan type.

ColorBrewer: Color Advice for Maps

We added new color schemes as palette choices, from colorbrewer2.org.
And we added a new tool (Tools Menu) to automatically change a map's district colors such that no similar colors are touching, using a minimum of colors.

Yesterday, we also updated the map to use a new drawing layer for shapes & lines.

On higher screen resolutions it looks better; & it will reduce browser resource usage & improve map loading & editing latency.

But on screens with lower resolution the look is worse 😬, so we backed it out for now.
