Mapping the Vote
18th December 2016
Alex Egoshin ran the presidential election returns through GIS software to create new relief maps comparing the United States of Doanld to the United Urban Centers of Hillary. Above, you have the Clinton Archipelago, and below, TrumpLand. Open each in a new tab for the full-size versions.
I suspect that, were the places where ‘income inequality’ is most extreme mapped as well, the map would match pretty closely to the Clinton Archipelago. Democrat preponderance tends to align with dense urban areas, and those are also the places where extremes of wealth and poverty are found.
