OMG! It's the Fiscal Cliff!

I found a site with maps that reflect who would be hurt if various deductions would be eliminated.

Here's a map of mortgage interest rate deductions. It shows the percentage of tax returns that used this deduction in each state. It seems to correspond pretty closely to states that went to Obama. There are obviously some exceptions like Utah, but the South matches the election map pretty well.
