Parodies of 538’s gender-divided electoral maps flood Twitter

After FiveThirtyEight released electoral maps showing what the 2016 election would look like if just women or just men voted, many took to social media with parody versions of the maps.
{mosads}Based on FiveThirtyEight’s maps, if just women voted, Democrat Hillary Clinton would win with 458 electoral votes to her rival’s 80. If just men voted, the map shows Republican Donald Trump would win 350 electoral votes to Clinton’s 188.
