GEOGRAPHY OF MID-TERM ELECTIONS USA

Fascinating maps on BBC and Guardian. Firstly the BBC map of results look like it was a landslide for the Republicans. However on closer examination at state level there is a much different picture. It is stunning to see the urban (democrat)-rural (republican divide being shown in almost every state. I would guess this to be a similar pattern as that shown in the UK with the younger and better educated being to the left whilst older and not university educated are to the right? This may be a vast oversimplification?
