The Colors Stuck. The color red has stuck and is now permanently associated with Republicans. Since the 2000 election, for example, the website RedState has become a popular source of news and information for right-leaning readers. The color blue is now permanently associated with Democrats.
The color scheme was created by TV. journalist Tim Russert on the Today Show, and NBC program, during coverage of the 2000 presidential election. The red color is associated â¦ with the Republican Party and the blue color is associated with the Democratic Party. Another NBC journalist John Chancellor used the system as well in 1976, but his color scheme was reversed. People needed to differentiate between the two parties on big T.V. maps so it just stuck.
