The Republican Party of Texas
"Keeping Texas Republican Red"

In America, we often hear of majority Republican states being
"red" and heavily Democrat-leaning states being "blue," but why?
Historically, this has not always been the case. To understand
the color association, a journey to 1976 is needed. In October of
1976, NBC constructed a map to illustrate -- in vivid blue and
red -- which states supported Republican incumbent Gerald Ford,
and which states backed Democratic challenger Jimmy Carter.
Ironically, during this time, a map of the United States lit up
blue for Republicans, red for Democrats, and white for undecided.
