A map built around one number

An electoral college map is an argument about arithmetic. Because electors are awarded by state, the state map is the whole canvas, and the point of the exercise is which combination of states reaches 270.

Create My Maps colors the geography; it does not count electors for you. Keep the running total in the title strip or the description line, both of which travel with the export, so the number and the map stay together when the image is shared.

Scenarios, forecasts and history

Nothing anchors the map to a real election, so the same canvas covers several uses.

Path to 270

Category mode with a group per party, clicking states into each until the total lands.

Toss-up maps

A third category for undecided states, so a forecast does not have to commit every state.

Historical maps

Recolor any past election - the map has no built-in data to contradict you.

Margin maps

Gradient shading by vote share instead of a flat party color.

Nebraska, Maine and the honest caveat

Two states split their electors by congressional district rather than awarding them winner-take-all. A state-level map cannot show that split, so if it matters to your scenario, note it in the description line rather than letting a single state color imply something untrue.

Frequently asked questions

Is the electoral college map maker free?

Yes. Free, no account, and no limit on how many maps you build.

Does it count electoral votes for me?

No. Create My Maps colors the map; it does not tally electors. Put your running total in the title or description so it travels with the exported image.

Can I build a toss-up or forecast map?

Yes. Add a third category for undecided states so a forecast does not have to assign every state to a party.

Can I map a past presidential election?

Yes. The map carries no built-in results, so you can color any historical election however your data says.

What about Nebraska and Maine splitting their electors?

A state-level map cannot show a district-level split. Note it in the description line so a single state color does not imply a winner-take-all result.
