Nominal Area Choropleth Map

Nominal Area Choropleth Maps are thematic maps that show areal data with the use of colors to distinguish different areas. The only data that is represented in these maps are nominal data. This map shows the House of Representatives Election map of 2008. This map displays that the democrats are the majority party with 255 votes and gained 20 seats. The Republican party was the minority and obviously lost 20 seats with the Democrats victory. There is no obvious trend to which sections of the country are Democratic or Republican.
