Election visualization roundup
With the US presidential elections coming up tomorrow (exciting!), here is a little roundup of related visualizations and information graphics I enjoyed:
Palin sentence diagrams
Two projects from Pitch Interactive
Job arcs
Donations
Neoformixhas a couple of interesting visualizations, mostly relating to speech analysis. I like this one best, as it really tells a compact story:
Stream graph: Obama’s one week speech
The NY Times info design department does not cease to amaze me:
The measure of a president
Can a president tame the business cycle?
Naming names
More lexical analysis and the windbag index from Martin Krzywinski:
Lexical Analysis of 2008 US Presidential and Vice-Presidential Debates — who’s the Windbag?
Every moment now
Great discussion on proper plotting of the candidates’ tax plans (via Nature where I picked up the great term “couture visualization”)
The Visual Display of Political Information
Another vivid discussion on displaying swing state dynamics at eager eyes:
Swing states
And now, my dear American readers – get out and vote! May the youngest and best-looking win :)
