Bivariate Analysis of 2024 Election Results in Portions of Cascadia

Post image

This map uses the same non-voter data as the previous, so it likely skews toward diluting the color more than it should, but this is a bivariate analysis of partisan political orientation by county with non-voter effects.

It confirms what u/Stoudman claimed regarding clusters of blue (i.e. left leaning) in the Salish Sea, Lower Columbia, and Clark Fork (MT), which I never disagreed with (this has been the heart of my argument all along - see previous posts). However, that the whole of Cascadia is not oriented to the left is evident in the data.

GIS is fun - glad you are making maps. What do you think that the bi-variate analysis reveals here beyond a standard map of the election results?

Also just a information display comment: I found it a bit hard to tease out the middle column in your key... the colors are quite similar to the right column, and the data range (49-51%) seems quite narrow.
