Visual data analysis of the 2008 US Presidential election results

An EX Visual Analytics Dashboard presents poll data for the 2008 US Presidential election. This Dashboard consists of two tabs:

a. The first tab uses a Grouped and Stacked Bar Graph to display an overview of the exit poll results for all major demographic groups.

b. The second tab uses a Geographic Scatter Plot to highlight regional differences in actual poll results. This tab includes a number of Filters that allow the user to screen results based on a variety of criteria. This tab also includes an on-the-fly-aggregation slider the supports drill up and drill down by region, sub-region, state, and county. The data in this tab is taken from state-level poll data and demographic information gathered from various sources, including the US Census, and aggregated by the New York Times.

This Information Dashboard shows the impact of different demographics groups on poll results as well as how these groups are geographically distributed.
