This bar chart compares the popularity of U.S. political parties by state, aggregating vote counts from 1976–2018 Senate elections. Each bar represents a state, with its length encoding total votes and its color encoding the party category, allowing a direct visual comparison of party support across states. The visualization uses the Vega-Lite API with d3 for data loading from a Harvard Dataverse CSV source, and configures the visual appearance through a custom config object.

graph2

A donut chart displays the partisan composition of the U.S. Senate across five congressional sessions, from the 112th through the 116th Congress. Users select a specific congress from a dropdown menu, which triggers animated transitions between the donut’s arc segments and updates the numeric labels positioned along thin connector lines. Built with D3 v5, the visualization uses `d3.pie`, `d3.arc`, and `transition.attrTween` to interpolate geometry smoothly, while `d3.scaleOrdinal` assigns colors to Republicans, Democrats, and Others. The underlying data is embedded as an array of objects containing seat counts per party for each session.

2016 US Vote Totals

A scatterplot displays total votes per U.S. state in the 2016 election, with each state represented by a circle positioned by its vote count on the y-axis and state name on the x-axis. The visualization uses React to render SVG elements, with D3 v6 scales and axes handling the layout. Data comes from a CSV file of county-level election results aggregated by state. The chart employs `d3.scaleBand` for the categorical x-axis, `d3.scaleLinear` for the numeric y-axis, and a `d3.scaleOrdinal` color scale, though the fill is currently disabled.

US Election Data Scatterplot

This scatterplot displays US House election results from 2008 to 2020, plotting each candidate’s vote count against the total votes cast in their district. The x-axis shows total votes, while the y-axis shows candidate votes, with overlapping semi-transparent circles revealing density patterns. The visualization uses d3.v6 to load CSV data from a GitHub gist, parses rows with numeric fields, and renders points via SVG circles scaled with d3.scaleLinear. Axes are generated using d3.axisLeft and d3.axisBottom, with the chart sized to the full window.

ICE-6: Rendering Marks and Channels

This horizontal bar chart displays the top 10 U.S. states with the highest Democratic vote counts from the 2020 election dataset. Each bar’s length encodes the vote total using a linear scale, while color differentiates states. The visualization is built with React and D3 v5, using `scaleBand` for y-axis positioning, `scaleLinear` for x-axis scaling, and SVG `rect` elements for marks. Data is loaded via `d3.csv`, sorted descending, and sliced to show only the top ten states.

Pie chart ICE7

This pie chart ranks the top five U.S. states by Democratic votes in the 2020 election, showing their relative shares of total votes among those states. Each slice is labeled with its state name, and the chart uses a categorical color scale to distinguish slices. Built with D3 v6, the visualization loads CSV data via `d3.csv`, sorts it descending by Democratic votes, and slices the first five rows. It renders slices using `d3.arc` and positions labels with `arc.centroid`, all within an SVG container.

Viz for Voter Data

This visualization shows voter-eligible participation (VEP) percentages for each U.S. state across election years, highlighting changes between presidential and midterm elections. Dots represent individual state-year data points, with lines connecting consecutive elections of the same type, and hovering over a point enlarges it to show the selected state. The chart uses D3.js v5’s `scaleLinear`, `axisLeft`, `axisBottom`, and `line` APIs, rendering as SVG. Data is loaded from a CSV file containing VEP figures by state and year, with jitter added to x-positions using `d3.randomUniform` to separate overlapping points.

Making bar charts

This example shows the results of Singapore’s 2020 parliamentary election as a bar chart, with each party’s popular vote displayed as a horizontal bar. The chart is built using D3.js v5, reading tabular data from a CSV file via `d3.csv` and mapping the values to bar lengths. The bars are rendered as SVG rectangles, with text labels for each party name and vote count. The data originates from the file `data.csv`, containing party names and their corresponding popular vote totals.

American Cabinets - Minorities by Party

This stacked bar chart shows the count of cabinet appointees by party affiliation, with bars divided into minority and non-minority segments. It uses the vega-lite-api in JavaScript to create a bar mark, encoding the categorical 'Party' field on the x-axis and 'Minority' on the color channel. Data is loaded asynchronously from a CSV of American cabinet appointments via d3.csv. The visualization is rendered with Vega-Lite and styled using a custom config that adjusts font sizes and removes axis domains.
