We produced 30 interactive maps and over 10,000 Adobe PDF precinct maps leading up to the 2004 general election.
Since then, we've updated the interactive maps with precinct-level data for California, Georgia, Minnesota, New Hampshire, New Mexico, South Carolina, Texas, and Wisconsin (plus Maine and Michigan townships).
We'll add more states where we can find statewide precinct-level geographic databases that match the 2004 election results, but in most cases this is not possible. Some additional states may become available as the 2008 election approaches.
Note that several other state map applications include 2002 through early 2004 precinct/precinct proxy voter data -- Arkansas, Florida, Maryland, Michigan, Missouri, North Carolina, Ohio, and Oklahoma.
We've updated the interactive maps with party affiliation maps for Congress and state legislatures to reflect the 2006 election.
Finally, you can now see a Google Map of the area you are viewing on an interactive map. (Google Maps did not exist at the time of the 2004 election.)
For example, click on the graphic below to use a Google Map as an entry viewport to the Georgia GOTV Mapper. Click on FairData (This Win.) or FairData (New Win.) to open the thematic interactive map.
You can switch back and forth by clicking on the balloon icons (representing various zoom levels) beneath the map image on the FairData interactive map.

10,000 Maps
To access the interactive maps select a state from the sidebar.
Over 9,000 high detail "zoomable" printer-ready, PDA compatible, street-level focus precinct maps are also available for Arkansas, Georgia, Maryland, Michigan, Missouri, North Carolina, Ohio and South Carolina. Depending on the state, the maps show block-level estimates of unregistered persons of voting age or unregistered plus inactive voters.
In addition, community-wide Adobe maps can be downloaded for about 1,600 localities in those eight states and a dozen or so other states where we have statewide registration or turnout data -- Arizona, Colorado, Florida, Minnesota, Nevada, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New Mexico, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, Texas, Virginia, Washington, West Virginia, and Wisconsin. Depending on the state, these maps show precinct or neighborhood-level estimates of unregistered persons of voting age or unregistered plus inactive voters.
Just for fun, we've added Adobe maps showing Bush-Gore by precinct for the same set of localities in Arizona, Colorado, Florida, Minnesota, Missouri, Nevada, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New Mexico, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Texas, Virginia, Washington, and West Virginia. Similar Adobe maps are available for the 2002 Senate contests in North Carolina and Georgia and the 2002 Wisconsin Attorney General race.
Also, street-level census data Adobe maps are available for selected precincts in Oregon and Wisconsin counties, where we have been unable to obtain the registered voter lists.
These interactive and Adobe maps can help you marshal scarce resources for door-to-door voter registration and target areas for transporting voters to the polls.
In addition to the default voter registration maps, each interactive map application includes maps showing neighborhood-level detail on the following:
-- Median Household Income (1999)
-- Population Below Poverty
-- Population Under 18 Below Poverty
-- Female Householder (single-parent) with own children
-- Percent Black (single-race, all ages)
-- Percent Latino (any race, all ages)
-- Percent Native American (single- race, all ages)
-- Percent Asian (single-race, all ages)
-- Housing Tenure (renters and homeowners)
-- Median Home Value (by census tract)
-- 18-64 Limited English-Speaking Ability (Spanish speakers only)
-- Percent Undercount
-- Households without a vehicle
-- Population 25 and over without a high school degree
-- Foreign Born Non-citizen Population (any race or ethnicity, all ages)
-- Population Ages 15 to 24
