Years ago when I was working at a TV station in Milwaukee, NBC premiered it's big election night map (and the used of the colors of red and blue at the same time).

I had to call the executive producer of election coverage at the network to tell him that the map included the UP as a part of Wisconsin instead of Michigan.

Not sure how the UP residents (or Northern Wisconsin for that matter) would have felt about that, but it cost the network a fair amount of money to fix their geographical error.
