Given the democratic structure of the United States, there is ample political data demonstrating regional patterns and variations in this country. Some of these data exists in the form of election returns and voter turnout results. Others occur in the form of regulations and policies that extend over political jurisdictions, such as capital punishment. Analyzing a variety of political patterns, there is evidence of durable political regions. Some of these patterns are evident in the maps below, which are in GIF format.
