One problem occurs when <a class=\"mw-redirect\" href=\"/wiki/Areal_unit\" title=\"Areal unit\">areal units</a> differ in size and significance, as is the case with election maps. These maps give extra visual weight to larger areal units, whether by county or state. This problem is compounded if the units are not equally significant. A large county or state in area may have fewer voters than a small one in area, for example. Some maps attempt to account for this by using <a href=\"/wiki/Cartogram\" title=\"Cartogram\">cartogram</a> methods, but the resulting distortion can make such maps difficult to read.<sup class=\"reference\" id=\"cite_ref-CromleyMcLafferty2011_22-0\"><a href=\"#cite_note-CromleyMcLafferty2011-22\"><span class=\"cite-bracket\">[</span>22<span class=\"cite-bracket\">]</span></a></sup><sup class=\"reference\" id=\"cite_ref-ArayaBreindl2011_23-0\"><a href=\"#cite_note-ArayaBreindl2011-23\"><span class=\"cite-bracket\">[</span>23<span class=\"cite-bracket\">]</span></a></sup> Another problem relates to data classification. Election maps often use a two-class color scheme (red and blue), which results in a map that is easy to read but is very generalized. Some maps use more classes, such as shades of red and blue to indicate the degree of election victory. These maps provide a more detailed picture but themselves have various problems associated with classification of data. The cartographer must choose how many classes to use and how to divide the data into those classes. While there are various techniques available, the choice is essentially arbitrary. The look of a map can vary significantly depending on the classification choices. The choices of color and shading likewise affect the map's appearance. Further, all election maps are subject to the interpretation error known as the <a href=\"/wiki/Ecological_fallacy\" title=\"Ecological fallacy\">ecological fallacy</a>.<sup class=\"reference\" id=\"cite_ref-24\"><a href=\"#cite_note-24\"><span class=\"cite-bracket\">[</span>24<span class=\"cite-bracket\">]</span></a></sup>\n",

These \"purple maps\" are useful for showing the highly mixed nature of voting, but are extremely difficult to interpret in detail. The lack of clear classes make these purple maps prone to the problems of color perception described above. However, there are pros and cons to both classified and unclassified choropleth maps.

These editorials note the increasingly polarized political strife in the U.S. between Republican voters and Democratic voters. They propose partition of the U.S. as a way of allowing both groups to achieve their policy goals while reducing the chances of civil war.<sup class=\"reference\" id=\"cite_ref-44\"><a href=\"#cite_note-44\"><span class=\"cite-bracket\">[</span>44<span class=\"cite-bracket\">]</span></a></sup><sup class=\"reference\" id=\"cite_ref-45\"><a href=\"#cite_note-45\"><span class=\"cite-bracket\">[</span>45<span class=\"cite-bracket\">]</span></a></sup>\n",
