Idea of blue
The idea of using colors to denote political parties was popularized by television news broadcasters, they used color-coded maps during presidential elections. Although, there was no uniformity in color choices, with different media outlets using different colors. Some followed the British tradition of using blue for traditionalist (Republicans) and red for liberals (Democrats). However, during the 2000 U.S. presidential election—and the lengthy battle to determine the winner—prominent news sources denoted Republicans as red and Democrats as blue, and these associations have continued.
