crosstabs lets you specify up to an eight-way table.  the list of
variables (only one variable long in your example) is separated by the
keyword BY.
crosstabs tables region by vote by region.

type the word crosstabs in the syntax window (or if you exited the menus
via <paste> it is already in the syntax window).
highlight it and click the syntax button to see all of the options.
