Presidential election results map. Green denotes states won by Norris/Long, blue denotes those won by Willkie/Farley, and yellow denotes those won by Taft/Short. Brown denotes states under the control of the MacArthur Junta, crimson denotes the state of Michigan under the control of the Provisional Revolutionary Government, and dark green denotes the states under Canadian occupation. Gray denotes former Junta, Revolutionary, or League states that were under American military occupation, but were not fully integrated, thus ineligible to vote. The states of North Dakota, Minnesota, Iowa, and Wisconsin, which had been recaptured from Revolutionary control, South Carolina and North Carolina, which had been recaptured from League control, and New Jersey, which had been recaptured from Junta control, had all been reintegrated into the Union and participated in the election. Meanwhile, only the Downstate areas of New York participated in the election due to Upstate New York being under Canadian control. Numbers indicate the number of electoral votes allotted to each state. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
