Hi Reece,
Yes, the United States political map is divided into states. The states that tend to vote Republican are colored red, and the states that tend to vote Democrat are colored blue. Any states from which third-party political candidates receive votes contain a third color (orange for example). These color-coded U.S. states also show the number of electoral votes received from the electoral college.
Different American General Presidential Elections have different outcomes each election cycle every four years, with no two presidential election cycles ever having the same results--even if a standing U.S. President gets re-elected to the White House, and even if some U.S. States remain red-colored or blue-colored electorally every four years (including during midterm elections in the two-year interim), respectively.
Does that answer your question? It seems like there may be more information that you have not included in the writeup of your question above. Feel free to let me know if you have any further questions for me, and if you are interested in seeking my tutoring services for additional assistance of any kind.
