Part a
look at these maps from the 2008 and 2012 presidential elections. in the space provided, note the differences and similarities between
the two maps. are certain regions more democratic and some more republican? what other interesting points do you recognize about the maps?

Nothing really changed except a few numbers in certain states and the fact that Indiana and North Carolina had voted for Obama in 2012.

As the maps are not included in this question, we cannot comment on the interesting points of the maps. However, we can examine based on other sources, which regions of the country are more Democratic and which ones are more Republican.

Competitive states (also known as swing states) are those that do not clearly lean one way or the other one on a regular basis. Usual swing states include Colorado, Florida, Iowa, Michigan, Minnesota, Ohio, Nevada, New Hampshire, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Virginia, and Wisconsin. Besides this states, most of the Northeast and the West tend to lean towards the Democratic party, while the South and the Midwest generally support the Republican party.

when studying cause and effect, historians usually group the causes into different categories. for example, cultural causes reflect how a society’s literature and art convey the way the society saw itself in relation to the rest of the world. another resource that historians use to understand society is pop culture, which tells them the trends and ideas that are preferred by the common people. when studying cause and effect, it’s important to remember multiple causation, or the idea that an effect could have several causes and vice versa.  

the correct option is “cultural causes” since art and literature are related to the culture of a place. culture is determined by literature, art, music.

the correct option is “pop culture” since it reflects the likes and ideas of common people whereas the rest of the options do not focus on common people.  

the correct option is “multiple causation” since it refers to the idea that events are caused by multiple reasons, not just a single one.
