I liked this
visualization by the New York Times of the
US presidential election so much I decided to recreate it using Mexican data, and in the process added a
slope graph. So go visit my
new visualization of the change in presidential vote from 2006 to 2012 at the municipality level. I recommend using
chrome to view the visualisation, there’s also a
Spanish version.
The
PRI gained votes in almost all the big municipalities save for Villahermosa (Centro). The home state of
AMLO.
Not everyone was happy with the post-election protests of the
PRD candidate. Interestingly, he did gain votes in several of the municipalities that make up the Monterrey and Guadalajara metro areas.
People in Villahermosa must really hate the
PRI. I was not surprised to see the
PAN lose votes in Culiacán, Juárez, Chihuahua, Cuernavaca, Tijuana, Zapopan, Guadalajara, Monterrey…
