I had a request to produce a map that’s similar to the last post, but to look at how Ravenstahl’s vote % changed from the primary election to the general election.
This first map (a reproduction from the last post) shows how Ravenstahl performed in this election versus how he performed in the 2007 general election. In this map, basically,
- The bluer the district, the worse Ravenstahl did against Harris & Acklin than against DeSantis
- The redder the district, the better Ravenstahl did against Harris & Acklin than against DeSantis
Below is a similar map, where we look at the difference in Ravenstahl’s general election performance versus his primary election performance. You can read this map as follows,
- The bluer the district, the worse Ravenstahl did against Harris & Acklin than against Dowd & Robinson
- The redder the district, the better Ravenstahl did against Harris & Acklin than against Dowd & Robinson
Primary and general elections obviously have different electorates to draw from. Because of this, the interpretation is a bit screwy, so I’ll leave these without comment.
