MapQuest Weighs In On Presidential Elections With #AvoidTrump Map

Denver-based MapQuest has weighed in on the U.S. Presidential elections, saying over the weekend that it has launched a humorous website called #AvoidTrump, which helps users avoid (or find) Donald Trump. The new site lets users click on an icon featuring Donald Trump's head to get localized advice on where you will not (or will) likely find Donald Trump in a city. For example, in Salt Lake City, the site recommends visiting Salt Lake City's Red Iguana restaurant, or one of the Green Bike locations serving Salt Lake. MapQuest apparently created the site as part of an entry to the Webby awards, for a humorous website.
