Google Earth - 2006 Election Guide

Google Earth has added the 2006 Election guide, another amazing interactive feature, to the U.S. maps to allow people to find information about Congressional Districts in every state. Two sub-layers can be turned on or off and include the U.S. Election guide and the U.S. Congressional Districts that shows the defining borders of each district.
