I'm not sure that's true, though. That article I linked has another map with similar divisions based on voting numbers for the current president and the opposition leader in the last election. They split similarly.

Of course there are a lot of other considerations -- who stands to benefit, how would a divide come about, etc. But I think there's evidence that it would be better than the current 'kleptocracy'.
