Feel free to have the New Jersey one made into a poster for your office door, a wallpaper for your computer, or a giant applique for your golf bag (the shape lends itself). I will not judge you. The Virginia one is more suitable for toaster cozies and rear-window graphics for your truck.
But the real fun is going to the interactive Washington Post map, and sliding that marker from '05 to '09 or '08 to '09, and watching the state get redder, especially in and around Hampton Roads and Northern Virginia. Click the map to go to the Post and give it a try. I improved the red in the version below to heighten your experience because the Post is begrudging us real red in favor of a muted color edging dangerously close to dusky rose. I have corrected that for you.
