U.S. Presidential Vote History in Google Earth

Google and the University of Richmond have teamed up to create a voting patterns layer for Google Earth (links to the Google LatLong Blog). It maps U.S. voting results at the state AND county level back to 1980. By state or by county you can access presidential vote data and demographics of a given area for the closest census year. Once again, too cool. If you're into the presidential race or just studying recent history, this is a great way to deliver this information.

If you're looking at Google Earth today (10/31), take a look at the "real-time earthquakes" layer and find the epicenters of today's mild earthquakes here in Dallas-Ft. Worth.
