You can’t read political blogs for five minutes without stumbling across another cartographic interpretation of last week’s election results. On the one hand, I’m finding all sorts of cool maps; on the other hand, I have to read political blogs. (Oops. Now I’m in for it.)

First, here are some more cartograms of state, county, and purple-map results (via Daily Kos).

Next, The Blogging of the President presented a whole bunch of new maps I hadn’t seen yet.

• The New York Times’s interactive map morphs between a straight geographical representation and a sort of block cartogram that makes each state’s size proportional to its share of the electoral college.
• Another interactive election thingy at the NYT includes a neat map of the popular vote by population density and a map showing the pluralities won in each county — essentially to show that Kerry’s strengths were in urban areas. (The Washington Post had something similar.)
• Music for America shows the electoral college map for voters under 30.
• A modest proposal to reform the electoral college to end its overrepresentation of rural areas.
