Local Election Maps

[Sibboleth]

Decided to make a thread for these. Note that this isn't country specific; maps of municipal elections from countries outside the U.K would be more than welcome

Anyway, the follow maps show the AV %'s for all four parties will seats on Cardiff City Council in 2004:



Note that Labour did unusually badly and the LibDems unusually well in those elections (for reasons mainly involving the then Labour leader of the council). The patterns are interesting anway.

Might as well throw my Brighton and Hove 2007 ones in here

Leading party:


Tories:


Labour:


Greens:

I have a few Saint Malo region maps I can throw in soon enough.

I had posted this in the gallery a few weeks ago:

May I ask our British members where they find their editable local England maps? I'm quite interested by doing some

Depends. I've got most of mine of the ONS. Send me a PM with areas you're interested in.

A map showing the largest party in each of the 22 councils in Wales following the 2004 local elections. I also have a map showing the wards for Ceredigion but will need to figure out what to do about the two member wards in Penparcau and Lampeter.

With split wards the best thing to do is stripes IMO. Or you could just do a poll-toppers (or leading AV party) map.

And here's a map showing which party polled the most votes in each council area in 2004 (note that Labour polled the most votes in Cardiff and Flintshire, but were not the largest party. The same goes for Plaid in Ceredigion)

AV maps for Rhondda-Cynon-Taff (2004).

Spot the Rhondda Fach!

Merthyr now:



Local politics in Merthyr is somewhat insane and is dominated by Labour and various (at least three IIRC) groups of Independent Labour types.

When you get to Ceredigion, would you be so kind as to send me a blank ward map?

Do you have ward-level results of Torono Mayoral elections? I've been looking for those for years.

(nice maps, as always, btw).

Question about that Ottawa map thee posted a while ago; what's the green area in the sea of blue in the west of the map?

That's Kanata. Munter was a regional councillor and Kanata city councillor there and was very popular, despite being so left wing and gay. (Kanata tends to be your typical right wing suburb)

Toronto ward results are posted on the internet for 2003 and 2006, but unfortunately I couldn't find anything from 2000. 2003 doesn't show the totals, so I didn't bother with the percentages on the map.

My next map:



Notice how Christopherson's endorsenment of Eisenberg in 2006 helped him win areas a Conservative wouldn't normally win.

Does anybody know where I could get some detailed results of the Québec municipal elections in 2005?

How detailed?

[Hatman]

I've only been able to find polly by poll results from Quebec City

although, I've only checked Montreal and Gatineau in addition. You might want to browse this site: http://www.quebecpolitique.com/election/municipales2005/index-en.html#2

2002:




2006:




Lokale partijen = local parties, usually (but not always) independents. Traditionally strong in the South (Noord-Brabant, Limburg) where the Catholic Party KVP in most municipalities reached somewhere between 80-100% in the national elections until about 1970. In their strongholds, the KVP usually didn't contest local elections. Instead, different groups of (Catholic) independents ran against each other. The last 20 years, local parties were founded in most municipalities in the Netherlands, with increasing success in the elections.

Overige partijen (2002) is the New Communist Party, in North East Groningen.

Geen verkiezingen = No elections, due to municipal redistricting the elections were either postponed to later that year, or were held 1 or 2 years before.

A new interest for me. I've always been quite interested in the history of the European far-right for some reason

2007 locals



Looking forward to comments from our UK friends

Nice, but the BNP should be in brown.

(btw, I'll be moving this thread into an older thread for local election maps. At some point. Done!)
