[OC] This chart is essentially a stacked bar chart of votes cast during the 2024 U.S. Presidential election. Each bar shows the percentages per state of the voter-eligible population, including votes for Trump, Harris, Other, or no vote. Each state’s bar is then sized per its Electoral Votes and ranked by margin from bluest (at left) to reddest (at right) according to the final margin. Votes cast are centered vertically in the field of non voters to illustrate the swing margin.
Data aggregated in MacOS Numbers, then imported to R for plotting to SVG with refinements in Adobe Illustrator.

not quite grokking this.. please say more?
This is actually a great visualisation.
Turnout, results, size of each state. Very good.
I don’t understand why the “no vote” is split between and bottom. It can’t be by party registration because many states have substantial populations registered as independent or unaffiliated.
It seems to me like aggregating the “non-votes” on the bottom would show a more compelling share of that non participation by state.
love the finishing touches!
So 69/70 people sticking with their vote for Trump and 1/70 people switching to Harris in MI/WI/PA would have won her the US election ? Nice…
Every state is a battleground state if the non-voters turn out.
A nation gets the government it deserves.
Well executed OP. Not going to lie, it took a second to orient to, because it’s just so data rich. Great visualization.
Loving your visualizations, OP, keep up the inspiration!
The United States of WI, MI, & PA.
DC is interesting in how it spikes blue so dramatically compared to others while also contracting overall
